If you aren't going above 33" tires I think rebuilt rear drums would suit you better. They work well when rebuilt. I was amazed at the difference when I rebuilt mine old wagon on 35's.
One of my favorite wagons. Would love to build on like this one day. I've been without my silver wagon for 4 years and miss that pile of crap all the time.
I've had Jeep TJ Springs in the back of my 4 runner for 3 years or so. I've never had an issue. No big deal.
But a wagon is not going to have anything to put the coil springs on to. Not stock anyway.
Call Don at Bear Automotive. Don was a charter member of our club (colorado land cruisers) and FJ-60 and FJ-40 owner. 591-5700, ask for Don.

Welcome to town!
Let me know if/when you plan to install it. I'll be happy to help. It takes a little bit of head scratching the 1st time, but it's super easy to install.
I haven't been to a meeting in a while. I've got class on Tuesday nights now typically. I haven't done much wheeling in a while either...
aussie lockers are lots of bang for the buck. You will know it is there that is for sure. I have lived with an aussie locker in my DD for the past 8 years or so. I would not put one in the front if I were you though. It will be tough driving on the road in 4wd in the winter. You are better...
Hey Jeff,
Early welcome to Colorado Springs. You should be right on time for the great weather season. PM me if you want my cell # for any assistance you may need in town. Unloading etc. I'll help if I can. What part of town will you be living?
I moved here from MN using a Penske...
I towed my wagon 1000 miles a day on a dolly. The wagon had 35's so I swapped the fronts with some junk tires I got from a friend. I had no issues even at 70 mph. I towed it behind a 32' Penske.
I had one of my old wagon. I believe it was an audiovox unit. I did not install it, it was on when I bought it.
it was however one of the few things that worked on my wagon. I loved it.
Sorry, no real info.
I'm on the westside and I've never seen the gray one. That white one has been on C/L for some time now, keeps going down in price. I believe he started at $1k.
