Something doesn't add up in this thread for measuring lift height.
http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=912893

According to the Dirty method measuring from top of axle tube to unirail just inboard of rear bump the XJ trailer has 2 1/4- 2 3/4" of lift.

But by the method where you measure from middle of axle to flare it comes up with 3-3 1/4" of lift..

Before you know it, you'll be walking her down the aisle. Costing much more than $200.

I'm splitting the difference and calling it 2 3/4" lift on the trailer, my rig was 4" new and measured out at 3.5" today. That sounds about right with the way it was tilted when connected.

I'm thinking 3.5" trailer leafs will even it out and settle to 3" and be right where I want it in a year or 2.

If it has the AW4 it should have 4.56's. If it is the other auto it won't.

JIM.

Its an 85 wagoneer
Hmm according to the Faq the aw4 didn't start until 87 however the shifter/shift indicator is identical to my 01's aw4. With no lift and 4 flats I wont be able to see under it until I do the tire swaps later this week.

Another confusing thing is the Faq says that for that year range it had the np207 command track with part time only or np229 selec track with full time and part time.

The Jeep has a low/high manual shifter and a vacuum switch that says 2wd or 4wd. so I'm thinking part time except right under the switch it says Selec-track. ( the name of the case with full time 4wd). also does this mean it has 2 low since the shifters are separate?

Don't assume anything with the 84-86 XJs...

I'll bet emptypockets86 knows...

My first xj was an 85 waggy, hence the name 85xjwoody. The 229 is a decent t/c with one problem, the vacuum actuator that pulls the linkage on the t/c to engage 4wd. I put in my own lever and ditched the actuator. You will have a three speed Torque Flight 904 transmission if an auto with 3.73 gears. Let me know if you have any questions about the 85.

Congrats on the baby. Remember to get your wife out of the house as much as you can.

I'm going to put a giant version of the baby warmer in my bedroom so I can sleep naked with no covers
