Hey grayghost_32, I feel your pain, I am currently researching what I believe to be every possible axle swap option for my 66 cj. As far as the Wagoneer axle is conserned if you have the Dana18 T-case which I imagine you must make sure the wagoneer had the Quadra-trak T-case. This will ensure a passenger side off-set. The rear should be no problems even thought the Wagoneer axle is considerablly wider than what you have. The problem you are going to run into is the front. You wil not be able to run that much width up front without "out-boarding" your springs. This is not an easy undertaking to get right; frame reinforcement, new shock mounts, blah, blah, blah. Good luck and let me know if you come up with any easy fix. Believe it or not retubing an AMC20 might be something to consider. They are readily available and cheap.
