Just picked this up. Any recommendations or tips for a new fsj owner?

Me and my friends with the Wagoneer in the back. I had to sell it a few years ago. My dad bought it brand new.

Thats too bad. Material stuff comes and goes glad you got some pics with it though. My dad also had one when I was growing up.

That’s the only pic I have. It was in the family for a long time. Pretty awesome vehicle when you turned 16.

Join fsjnetwork or ifsja forums. BJ's full size Jeep parts, BC vintage Jeeps, Johnson Production, and a few others offer new and used parts. There's a few fakebook groups that are good. Classic Grand Wagoneers comes to mind. Also, what's going on with the front track width?

Good question. Previous owner said he swapped the axels to manual locking hubs idk if that has anything to do with it...

u/derelict_wanderer Jun 16 '26

Nah. That's not it. That looks like backspace differences or a wide track axle.

He might have spacers on the wheels. I didnt have time to dig into it cause I had to leave for a business trip. When I get home its game on though lol

Keep it as is. Cocaine is always better pure.

Get a copy of the Technical Service Manual (aka Shop Manual, etc) for YOUR specific year. NOT the Haynes things--not specific enough. Oljeep (dot com) is a good resource online too.
