Re: [AMC-list] why is it?

[Wayne E Lamothe <superglider@xxxxxxxx>]

It really depends on the gearing in the Concord or Eagle.  I know my
Eagle had 2.35 gears in one and 2.73 in the other.  They barely got out
of their own way.  The Jeeps had 3.54 gearing.  I would not consider
towing with anything less than 3.08s.
