landroversforever Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 If its standard height you want then you can't go wrong with a set of new genuine ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddy Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Last time i priced them up, terrafirma's were £1 cheaper each than gen ones, i think these are a decent upgrade at a good price. Just chisel the lower shock cups off if your vehicle has them. Will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff.

Boydie Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I got a set of Bilsteins, again standard height but with adjustable rebound with an allen key on the top of the ftonts and on the outward facing side of the rears and best thing is they are able to be fully reconditioned and re-valved so excepting the heavily chromed shaft whitch is fully enclosed and inside full length consertina gaiters. They (Bilsteins) may cost a little more but are cheaper in the long run and give far better performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbekko Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Tuffback, a very good shock, and very happy with them. I'd stay away from TerraFirma, too many stories of pins breaking off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddy Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 AFAIK the pin snapping is down to not removing the shock cups and or fitting the washers incorrectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Also down to people doing them up far too tightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyred90 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I used to run old man emu on mine but had terrafirma on the d2 which have also been good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty72 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Does anyone know if there are dampers available with both high and low speed compression damping adjustment. Not that bothered about the low speed as I've almost got used to driving a boat but the high speed damping is really getting on my nerves and rattling my teeth!
