Looking to buy a samurai. I'm not buying sight unseen, but as this one is quite a drive, hoping to find out any potential problems before I get there. This is what I know:

1986
62,000 miles, all original
Spring over axle with 6 inch shackles
33x12.5x15 radial crawler tires

I am mechanically inclined, and have worked on stock samurais, but am unfamiliar w mods. Does anyone w experience see any red flags?
My untrained eye notices the front is sitting slightly higher than the back. Is this intentional, a lift error, or weak springs? Also, what's the simplest method of fixing if needed?

I know there are many unanswered questions, but I don't know much yet. Any input is greatly appreciated.
