Has anyone tried Dobinson MRR Bypass Shocks on there Disco? Might be easier than getting 7100's organised and was wondering if anyone else has given them a try?

They don't have one listed for the Disco. But I've sent them a e-mail with some details and hope to get a response.

They don't seem to do Land Rover either. They also don't have an e-mail address I can send them details.

I've sent the details to a Fox distributor instead.

Do they do a traditional shock? The literature would suggest it's a coilover design, like what would be fitted to most new ifs trucks.

But Why do you need to spend money on these Young Grass Hopper, you told me you already beat all the other land bruisers and nissans in your club with your current arrangement!.
You need to stop spending $ on your mistress and spend them $ on your missus , maybe an engagement ring or something?:D:D

These shocks are as shiny as diamonds. Not to mention she won't need that double sports / 4WD bra she has been looking for.

Win Win Win - For the mistress, the misses and me. Doesn't happen often.

Sorry I meant to say that Dobinson have not contacted me and I've spoken to Dobinson distributors who are also having the same trouble. So i figured i'd look elsewhere, and Fox is a reputable brand who have developed some Land Rover specific shocks, they do a remote resi for D1 for example and a replacement shock for D2.

I figured i was half way there with Fox.
