    VOLVO TGB Expedition Camper

    I'm not done yet so the final verdict is still to come. But NO, it is NOT an easy job...

    60 Series Suspension Question

    Hi I cannot help on where you get it. I live in Denmark. BUT get the greasable shackles and bushings theyre definetly worth it! And remember to grease them once in a while. With a well looked after EMU suspension you get the feeling of coil springs and a much nicer ride. Your car is 22 years...
