Thanks for all the advice and the answers ring true to my normal car experiences. I actually removed a set of completely stuffed Bilstein shocks off my 1969 Mercedes.... but they still had the paint dots on the nuts and this was 30 years down the track! And I could have them rebuilt and even fine tune the settings if done by Sydney shocks at the time. Also I had Koni yellow on my old 68 Alfa that I circuit sprinted and they are still there and working well. So both brands I would be extremely comfortable with. And I know for a lot of landrover parts the genuine ones are often of very high quality that is not the case for all manufacturers. I think though I will shop around the billies and konis, konis often seem to have that rebound adjustability so that gives some flexibility. Thanks again for your responses and the tip on searching using google rather than the forum search.
