Re: Help Needed with Troop Carriers
I would have liked to have kept the troop carrier or bought a later one, but my wife hated having to raise her voice over the wind, road and engine noise, and didn't like the feel of being in a truck.
As far as the disc brakes were concerned, I never touched the rear discs but did replace the front ones at about 300000km I think. It wasn't a big deal or huge expense from memory.
My suspension was upgraded to heavy duty shocks and king springs at about 230000km and I remember them costing about $1700 all up. The 78 series would probably be cheaper because of the coils up front. Made a huge difference after fitting them but it did need it as at the time I was an electrical contractor and was loaded right up all time.
Great looking vehicle too.
