    Very true but on account of a faulty airbag...once that was sorted no issues....like anything that has 10 years wear and tear on it you can expect to have issues....so as things break i will replace them with aftermarket parts just like any classic owner has done....will look at doing a body lift then throw the arnott air springs on it and with the long travel bilsteins from the red truck shold get the same travel as your truck

    not bad concidering their will be no comprimise on comfort

    I think what we are getting at is that a P38 is harder to mod than a classic, not impossible though. I like a challenge, but that's a bit too much for me and quite content with my old dunga. it's rough, noisy, fuel guzzling and gutless but i like it

    Also with the P38's the height sensor needs to be lengthened or else you'll throw the air suspension into chaos if you put longer travel shocks in Unfortunnatley you'll never get the travel out of a p38 that a classic can achieve primarily because the 38's don't have the a-frame set-up and use a panhard rod like a Pootrol does. This is why the classic Rangie had superb std wheel travel in it's day.
