what shocks are people using, and what price are you paying for them? i know about sierra's but have no clue with rovers
its a 95 and stock. we mostly use it as a run around but do take it out 4wding every other weekend. just want some thing thats not going to die in 6 months

pay the money for quality front shocks, I personally run bilstiens.
I found in the rear the shocks don't have as bigger effect, and you can save some dollars and fit some procomps

Ditto to Grimace....
I run 80 Series Bilsteins up front and procomps at the rear....anything else up front is crap!

Put bilstiens on a P38 HSE and on softest setting they are still too rough. Never fitting them again!! absolute crap for a P38..

Mine are TJM XGS but I note they're not popular with previous posters, not sure why...?
Are yours linear or progressive?
