I’ve had a set on the front of my 110defer for six ish months. I did go to the trouble of actually measuring mount to mount with spring fully compressed and full droop.
I run them on setting one which probably means the valving needs or the 130 spring are too stiff.
No leaks to date and seem to do the job.
I’ll purchase a set for the rear and at the same time convert to pin to pin.

I've only heard good things about them.
Dobinson's also make RRS which might be worth comparing.

I have had the Superior remote res shocks on my 130 for 15 months. I've done about 30,000k's on them, 3000ish on fast dirt roads, a fair bit of semi-technical 4wd trails, 5000ish towing an 18ft caravan on road and the rest mainly unloaded on road.
I am very happy with them overall, especially for the money.
I bought them from APT with their flexicoils. APT revalved them, I run them on 5 front, 4 rear, unloaded and up the rear a click or two when loaded. The only issue was the front shocks supplied had a closed length that reduced up travel to just over 25mm which meant that I had to fit plus 1 inch shock towers rather then use the ones I paid APT for.
Cheers,
Stan.

Dobinson will be releasing RRS with adjustable comp and rebound in a month. About same price as SE which are only adjustable compression
