My EFS leafs in rear - coils front & Elite shocks are way better than the OME i had previously..
Never driven on Tough Dogs though.

I had Dobinsons in my last 4by and they were just great both springs and shocks and now just put EFS in at Xmas just gone.
Was in last month getting reset as they went into a W shape. There service was good but a bit over a month gone and they are sagged again only in the front as the rear is fine.
The reply was to blame the car but as they fitted the lot they new what they were in for.
My problem may only be a one off but the answer is not just resetting the old springs IMO

Good luck with whatever you choose.

but you heard bad stories about sagging with every brand....

Can you remember what size (diameter) wire the coils were? because i might go for a 18mm or even bigger if possible to hopefully stop the sagging!
