JMACX GVM Upgrades – LandCruiser 78 Series Troopy
3,900 kg · 4,200 kg · Coil conversions · Fitted & certified in-house at Smeaton Grange
JMACX GVM for your Troopy
A fitted-out Troopy is one of the heaviest touring vehicles on the road – drawers, kitchens, water, fridges and pop-tops all add up. JMACX coil conversions turn the 78 into a vehicle that carries that weight legally and rides properly doing it, on both the VDJ V8 and the new 1GD.
Every package is federally approved, fitted by our own technicians and supplied with the compliance and speedo correction paperwork, whether your vehicle is new or already registered.

Add JMACX Alpha 2.5 shocks
Alpha shocks are designed and tuned by JMACX for heavy GVM builds: a true 2.5 inch internal bore, adjustable damping and an optional in-cab electronic controller, so you can firm up for towing and soften for corrugations.
