If my some what aging memory is not overly faulty it seemed to me that the Eagle had to be lifted to allow all of the four wheel drive mechanics fit under the chassis. This was the primary reason for lifting although at the time 4 wheel drive vehicles had more ground clearance than 2 wheel drive vehicles so that may have been a supporting reason too. But it seems to me that it had to be raised to get stuff to fit. =============================== I'll say no, most all the 'stuff' gets 'stuffed' due to the floor pan being 'a specialty item' > a huge off-set 'hump' inside the vehicle that allows the engine & trans to snug up to the otherwise bottom of the vehicle. Long distance driving finds that 'convex legged' folk having a much more comfortable time of it. The floor-pan design in the EAGLE deserves more discussion as it is unique - however - at the moment I'm to catch a 5:15 AM Metro North Train to NYC Grand Central Terminal for a 6:45 AM snack before hitting NYU College.
