    Me and a mate have just ordered two complete suspension set-ups from Dobinsons.
    We're getting them flown out to Dubai by a mate in Lismore but due to the extensive flooding in the region he can't get the courier to pick up the pallets!
    I've had Dobs in the past so decided to go with them again...although the bonded in bushes might prove to be an Achilles heel?

    Yeah I didn't think it would be an issue, even rang TNT over in the U.K shortly after receiving the no go from paddocks, & they said its just a case of notification of what the goods are an filling out a DGD form then happy days. I than passed on this info to paddocks in which they replied they had a parcel destroyed (most likely for not following procedure), & will not ship shocks via air anymore.

    still waiting on the refund so I can pay Devon 4x4. They also price matched Paddocks so im happy to some extent but won't have a smile on my face until I'm holding the box

    Often overlooked is the Ultimate brand of shocks. Made in Australia by Ultimate, I've only ever been impressed with them. Ken and Brendan will set them up to suit your vehicle and how you use it. Well priced to, I think $600 for a set of four or around there.

    Plenty of people rate their product. The only shock I'd take over the Ultimates for my Defender would be the Koni Raids, but the price is a bit off putting.

    Good to be able to talk to the people that make them and get them just right.

    Rangier Rover had the boys at Minto do the dampers for his air bagged all round Deefer 120.

    He was very happy with the results.
