I know Lovells work with the shorty but I haven't delt with Dobinsons enough to comment on them. I can sell either to you for $300. Check out

I have had quite a few comments by people that the Dobinsons shocks are valved just a tad too firm. This is especially the case for the SWB. I would recommend Lovells or EFS shocks for the shorty.

I have Lovells coils in my LWB Patrol and are happy with them.

for 2" lift only find yourself some good hydraulic shocks.

DONT QUOTE!!!! me on this but i have herd that dobinson shock's come in a firm and soft ride. Are lovells and EFS made by the same company and just change the paint job and stickers.

Highly reccomend Lovells coils.
EFS & Lovells shocks are not the same. Although they were the same in the past.

Very true, Lovells seem a lot more tougher and durable than EFS now, however they are valved very similar so they kept the nice ride that EFS have.
I think it is most important that you choose the coil that suits your application best whether it is Dobinsons or Lovells or even Kings although I don't really recommend Kings for 3" lift and above. (Not personal experience but other more qualified peoples personal experience.)
