The Jeep Wagoneer, produced from 1963 to 1991, was a full-size SUV that established Jeep's reputation for off-road capability and luxurious amenities within a rugged frame. The 1981-1986 model years, covered by this parts manual, marked a crucial transition for the Wagoneer. Following the trend of larger SUVs, the 1981 Wagoneer received a significant redesign, gaining a more angular, boxy exterior that mirrored the contemporary design language of the time. This redesign emphasized practicality and interior space while retaining the classic Jeep heritage. A new 5.9L V8 engine offered robust power, while the Wagoneer continued to offer a choice of two- or four-wheel drive configurations. This period also saw the introduction of optional amenities like air conditioning, automatic transmission, and power steering, further blurring the line between rugged off-roader and comfortable family vehicle. Despite the modernization, the 1981-1986 Wagoneer retained the signature qualities that made it a success. It remained a capable off-roader with a solid body-on-frame construction and a robust drivetrain. This generation was known for its reliability and durability, qualities that continued to resonate with customers looking for a vehicle that could handle a variety of terrains and weather conditions. The Wagoneer's spacious interior, comfortable seating, and optional luxuries ensured that it could also serve as a practical and comfortable vehicle for daily driving. This blend of ruggedness and comfort cemented the 1981-1986 Wagoneer's status as a versatile and desirable SUV, and its legacy continues to inspire modern Jeep models.
