choice of shocks when upgrading!!

Hi everyone. Im thinking of upgrading my 1.5 spring spacer lift with a 2" spring and shock replacment.
Iv been on Jimnybits website and im thinking of going for the kit you can get from there for £280.
My question is, you get to choose which shocks you get. Which ones are best?

Below is a link to the page in question.

Thanks

you only get the es1000 for £280 all the others are dearer

most people like the es1000 as it gives a less harsh ride

ours has es1000 on the back and rough countries on the front but is an offroad toy so on road handling isn't important ( fairly on-existent with a 5" lift and the added weight of a full roll cage and winch and 17 tonne of recovery gear you set sail rather than drive )

if you are offroading the most then go for the softer ones but if you are mainly on roads then you could try one of the harder or dearer ones

I played out with my new Jimnybits +3 springs (and 1.5'' spacers) with es3000 shocks, I found the ride off road excellent, not to harsh or too soft.

Thanks guys, Ill be going for the es1000 then. Hopefully Ill get some photos for those who are thinking of getting them too.

Iv just read a thread that says I would need new caster bushes if I go to 2" lift.
I dont have to do I?. surly its only needed on taller lifts such as 3 or 4"!!

Mines on a 2" body / 3" suspension lift and i dont have the caster correction (that i know of) and its ok, you just get used to it.
