Yesterday I picked up the 83 wagoneer I traded the
motor I had. It is a wagoneer limited with the heavy duty suspension package and the trailer towing package "B". can someone tell me exactly what that designation means I assume its the hitch and elec. hook up. couple of small dents and no rust to speak of. Just for general interest the original window sticker and owners manual was in the glove box which states estimated mpg 13 ,suggested retail price 18,792.00 .seems high end for 83 dollars. anyway I guess we now let the games begin and thanks for a great site.

I think the "B" tow pack was for 5000 lb and the "A" was the 3500 lb package. Both tow packs should have the 3.31 gears over the std 2.73's.

All the 5000 lb tow packs came with 3.31's for sure...I thought the 3500 lb packs did too. I guess not. ;)
