New guy with AMC Eagle Wagon

Yeah, I hear you.
I'm visit 7 forums and then add Craigslist on top of that.

 

Welcome aboard! Those AMC Eagles go like a tank in the snow! My Fairmont Wagon might as well be on jack stands! It has a hard time pulling out on a wet road let alone a snow covered road! But as far as any other driveing I love my lil red wagon. I'm diggin that SVO also! Does it have the aluminum A arms on the front?

 

I only get stuck in snow if I get caught in a roadside snow bank, with mine. She's a bit light, but I can usually push her out myself. Put her in reverse and push her back, then run like heck to the brakes! Do you run Summer tires all year long, in KY?

 

The Eagle is a blast in the snow. It was funny seeing the looks on peoples faces when I was driving down the street after a blizzard and a couple feet of snow on the road.
I installed A arms from a standard Fox Mustang on the SVO so I could put the 01 Mustang spindles, Cobra brakes and 17x9 wheels up front. They come stock from the factory with a forged steel A arm which is actually from a 82 or 83 Lincoln Continental with non servicable ball joints.

 

I run allseason tires on it. Right now I have Goodyear/viva2 tires on it. I would like to 5 lug my wagon and put a set of bogart alumistars on it but I like keeping it all sleepered out! The reason I asked about the a arms was because my buddies SVO has the aluminum A arms on it.

 

I think this is the first Eagle here. Glad to have you.

 

I like that Eagle!, those were so hot at the time with that high stance it was the first SUV

I wonder how one would look with an old Javelin front end on it :banana:
