65 Wagoneer body swap

Post by Idaho »

I am wanting to buy a 65 wagoneer and possibly swap the body to an 85 frame. I like the newer drivetrain and suspension but not sure about body mounts and several other issues. Thoughts.

Welcome to the forum.

I moved this post out of build threads as its not yet a build thread.

To help answer your question, we have several builds on here about using newer chassis with an FSJ body. You can see one going on right now here: https://www.fsjnetwork.com/forum/viewto ... 12&t=20923
