I remember when rovercare did his eas 130, the rebound was way to firm, making the ride harsh. There was nothing off the shelf long enough to suit.

And Rangier Rover had The Ultimate Suspension custom build dampers for his full air bag 120.
They fitted it with linear variable displacement transducers (LVDT's) and a data logger to get the valving right.

So the guy that fit it to his GU, did he change the shocks to suit? Valving is completely different amd tricky to work out.
