So having found out that air shocks are crap, can anyone recommend a good set of heavy duty rear shock absorbers?

BNT are doing Gabriel shocks on special at the moment. OK for std vehicle.

I'm also trying to find some shocks for my R50 but I need 2" longer than std.
Struggling to find any :(

I have just been recommended Drive Tech 4x4 H/D's which can take up to a 50mm lift.

Anyone had experience with these?
