Dont know about the Dobinson shocks, i did have a mate that had procomps in his gu ute with only 3 or so inch lift.

He didnt like them and riding in the car I agree, they seemed way too soft and didnt control the bounce on road very well at all.

I had tough dog adjustables with a 6" kit in an 80 and they seemed very good, tho they did leak and get replaced under warranty..

Not sure if this helps you at all....

I run dobinson shock and coils at 5 inch and find them excellent. Good flex and handle well with no swaybars at that hight on 37" tyres in my gq.
