Hi Duncan,
Over the years I have used King, Pedders,TJM and I now have Dobinsons in my 100 series (coils) and I think they are great they are not harsh in the ride and seem to handle weight pretty
well. I would definitely recommend them.
Regards
Ken

Morning Fitzie and I have used their products for many years on a number of different vehicles. they make a good product and their after market support is probably better than most. If you tell them what use you have for the vehicle they can supply a suitable system.

Hi Duncan,
I had a full system fitted (50mm lift F&R) to my 'old' 200 series. It reduced body roll & didn't reduce the ride quality that much.
After two years a leak started to develop in one of the rear shocks, a quick phone call to Ray (sales at the factory
Rockhampton) a new set of rear shocks was in my possession in a few days... excellent service.
I dont know where you live ....but we were traveling up the Qld coast & it was convenient to have the kit fitted at the factory (Rocky) at what I believe considerable savings. You can even get a very interesting tour of the factory, they are really nice people to deal with!
The company & product gets my tick of approval.
Usual disclaimer... No association with this company

Duncan,
They back their products and don't shy away from any warrenty problems, be it spring sagging or wrong height springs.
Good company.
