this is the only trooper i,ve had and was wondering how it should feel going over bumpy ground ie farm track few small pot holes .

the reason i,m asking is mine feels very hard on bumpy , is that normal .

might seem a daft question to some, but i dont have any thing to compare it too , the only other 4x4 ive driving as been a couple of old landies and they where very soft on the bumps.

thanks again .

My mk1 2.8td is very bumpy on the back end when empty, and gets softer with about 1/2 ton in it Shocked

Is it a MK 1 or a later coil sprung one. Like Mark my MK 1 was very harsh off road, it's improved a lot since I replaced the sagging rear springs, bushes and the seized shackles but it's still not the smoothest of rides, frankly cart springs never are. Leaf sprung landies aren't the smoothest of rides either.
