It's a little more difficult then just fiddling with one INI, it involves two

ObjectCreationList.INI
TechBuildings.INI

First find the TechReinforcementPad in TechBuildings.INI then go to where the code looks like this...

  Behavior       = OCLUpdate ModuleTag_05 ; Context window is a reaction to this, no CommandSet 
    MinDelay     = 120000
    MaxDelay     = 120000
    CreateAtEdge = Yes ; as opposed to just creating on self

    FactionTriggered = Yes ; This requires a controlling player before it works
    FactionOCL   = Faction:America                   OCL:OCL_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:AmericaSuperWeaponGeneral OCL:OCL_SWGen_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:AmericaLaserGeneral       OCL:OCL_LGen_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:AmericaAirForceGeneral    OCL:OCL_AFGen_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle

    FactionOCL   = Faction:China                     OCL:OCL_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:ChinaTankGeneral          OCL:OCL_TnkGen_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:ChinaInfantryGeneral      OCL:OCL_InfGen_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:ChinaNukeGeneral          OCL:OCL_NukeGen_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle

    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLA                       OCL:OCL_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLAToxinGeneral           OCL:OCL_ToxGen_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLADemolitionGeneral      OCL:OCL_DemoGen_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLAStealthGeneral         OCL:OCL_StlthGen_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
  End

You need to make your own OCL which uses a ground transport and gives you the units that you want, lets look at one of these current OCLs as an example...

ObjectCreationList OCL_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
  DeliverPayload
    Transport = AmericaJetCargoPlane
    StartAtPreferredHeight = Yes
    StartAtMaxSpeed = Yes
    MaxAttempts = 4
    DropOffset = X:0 Y:0 Z:-5
    DropDelay = 400
    PutInContainer = LargeParachute
    Payload = AmericaTankCrusader 1
    ParachuteDirectly = Yes ; will tell all contained parachutes to go ahead and bunch
    ; up on the target instead of parachuting to the spot below their drop point.
    DeliveryDistance = 250
  End
End

As you can see they're pretty simple really, all you need to do is make a copy where the transport is 'ChinaVehicleTroopCrawler' and the Payload is 'ChinaInfantryRedguard 8'. Also, comment out the 'PutInContainer' and 'ParachuteDirectly' attributes and set the Z value in the DropOffset to 0, like the following....

ObjectCreationList OCL_ChinaGroundReinforcement
  DeliverPayload
    Transport = ChinaVehicleTroopCrawler 
    StartAtPreferredHeight = Yes
    StartAtMaxSpeed = Yes
    MaxAttempts = 4
    DropOffset = X:0 Y:0 Z:0
    DropDelay = 400
    ;PutInContainer = LargeParachute
    Payload = ChinaInfantryRedguard 8
    ;ParachuteDirectly = Yes ; will tell all contained parachutes to go ahead and bunch
    ; up on the target instead of parachuting to the spot below their drop point.
    DeliveryDistance = 250
  End
End

Next, simply put this new OCL into the TechReinforcementPad code above, we'll just replace the Chinese one for the moment...

  Behavior       = OCLUpdate ModuleTag_05 ; Context window is a reaction to this, no CommandSet 
    MinDelay     = 120000
    MaxDelay     = 120000
    CreateAtEdge = Yes ; as opposed to just creating on self

    FactionTriggered = Yes ; This requires a controlling player before it works
    FactionOCL   = Faction:America                   OCL:OCL_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:AmericaSuperWeaponGeneral OCL:OCL_SWGen_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:AmericaLaserGeneral       OCL:OCL_LGen_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:AmericaAirForceGeneral    OCL:OCL_AFGen_ReinforcementPadUSAVehicle

    FactionOCL   = Faction:China                     OCL:OCL_ChinaGroundReinforcement ;<------THIS IS OUR CHANGE HERE
    FactionOCL   = Faction:ChinaTankGeneral          OCL:OCL_TnkGen_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:ChinaInfantryGeneral      OCL:OCL_InfGen_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:ChinaNukeGeneral          OCL:OCL_NukeGen_ReinforcementPadCHIVehicle

    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLA                       OCL:OCL_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLAToxinGeneral           OCL:OCL_ToxGen_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLADemolitionGeneral      OCL:OCL_DemoGen_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
    FactionOCL   = Faction:GLAStealthGeneral         OCL:OCL_StlthGen_ReinforcementPadGLAVehicle
  End

Note: You may need to try setting the new OCL to absolutely no payload as the troop crawler already comes with the troops, if this still doesn't work, then create a duplicate troopcrawler with no initial payload and use that instead.
