Thread: D1 shockies

DO NOT fit Ranchos to your vehicle. You will regret it.
OME are 'average' on a D1
Ironman, well as long as you are not pounding them on corrugations in high temps they'll do the job, just.
I would spend good $ on good shocks.

DeCarbon, $180each(Just had a huge price hike)
Koni or Bilstein are then the best options, haven't got current prices on these but are well worth fitting.

I reckon some of that would depend on where you live, supply and demand and the store you deal with.

I put a full set onto my disco 1, I had Rancho's then Boge, then used these guys. The shocks were gas and had a 2 inch length over the standard. Ride was very good but not harsh.

The springs were Dobinson 2 inch lift and had been on for 6 years with minor sagging.

The club I am in, in Brisbane went out on site for a tour one weekend, and from this I found that they gave a club discount.

The price I got for all 4 shocks after the club discount was just under $400 inc GST last year 2008. Had to show the mebership card.

Springs through them are around $150 a pair. They will put whatever brand under if you wish. For the Dobinsons they suggested going direct as they didn't get a discount. (I didn't get around to upgrading the springs as I sold the car to HooDoo Brown)

I would recommend these shocks to all. Very happy with performance and price.
