The 2 with blown engines/bad crankshafts I purchased that way so dont know if any other troubles besides headlamp gskts,windows and CD
The truck with 44K only has the headlamp gaskets missing but I know the windows will screw up sooner or later.

Isuzu in El Paso, texas are no help and seem to be A##holes. like many Texans!
I have owned 10 Troopers and most never had anything w
rong. Last one sold had 266K and the frame rusted out as it was an Ohio Truck. The Mexicans I sold it to are still running it. these were from 86 to 92s. Seems the quality and engineering was shortcuted in the VX- a Passport engine? HOWEVER< I love my IRONMAN, in spite of the problems and will sell the 44K truck and rebuild one of the blown ones. MY 2 1/2 cents MRMG Less trouble out of my lucas wired 57 MGA!

For a 30 K$ vehicle in 99, I would expect more.
Isuzu USA can forget about me buying any more product!

I may have to go back to dodge! Hope the suits read these!
Hey buddy, would you be willing to sell me some small parts off one of the broken ones?? I need that back plastic panel on the back door, a CD changer, a dome light, front bumper, and the shift lever for the tranny. Email me at donknight82@hotmail.com or call at (509) 230-2291. Thanks.
