Does anyone know much about Gabriel shocks? Especially the "Blue Ryder Gas" shock. Are they any good?

I have been mulling over which shocks to buy, some say Gabriel are great, others rubbish - seems most brands are re-badged Gabriel or Munroe's.

I guess with a 2 year, 60,000 K warranty (Blue Ryder), you can't go far wrong...

Anyway - a very good friend got me a great deal on Munroe's - so Munroe's it is!

I had the blue ryders on my 100series petrol and I had no problems , they are valved a bit softer and give a great ride over slow rough tracks.

Sorry I can't comment on the Gabriels but I recently purchased a set of Don Kyatt Terrain Tamers for my Jackaroo. I could not afford the best but thought I would get a reasonable result with middle of the range - Unfortunately I am unhappy with the Terrain Tamers which are a Cofap made in Brazil. I could of purchased a full set of Japanese KYB for under $200 or a set of ACDelco/Gabriels for similar and maybe a better result.
