OME nitro chargers
Can't remember the P/N but any ARB dealer will know.

Consider the Rangie Spares +2" Bilsteins from Jules at http://www.twooffrd.iwarp.com/

OME are good but short, if you are mucking about with a Rangie might as well get some of that wheel travel so easily available.

If you are looking at different brands then ask me to price up Rancho 9000x's - I can get them pretty cheap now. offlist me at steve@4wdstuff.co.nz. I don't know the best models for a lifted rangie, but if you give me the top and bottom mount types, and the open and closed lengths you want I can find something to match.

regards

Steve

Cheers Guys

Been given a set of second hand Rancho 9000's (9159's and 9179's) that came off a lifted defender. Im guessing they may work as I found out the 9179 (rear) are originally for a Ford Bronco so hopefull the previous owner of the shocks did his homework correctly. All will tell tomorrow.........
