Looking for a bit of advice on Shockers!
from all the threads I've looked at there seems to be a wide selection of opinions on what's good/bad etc.
General consensus seems to be gas filled! My local garage replaced one last year for the mot with a bog standard cheapo that works(after I tightened up the top nut!!) The other side has a bit of wear on the top bush that needs replaced for the Mot this time and I'm trying to decide the best course of action,
1. replaced worn bush and stick with what's on.
2. Take the chance and replace with new shockers and bushes both sides to improve things?
I'm not looking for any lift and prefer to keep things pretty standard but make sure it's of good quality and going to last the distance. Occasionally have a heavy load in the back when collecting a load of animal feed but mostly not a huge weight but has to be good for towing the Horse trailer loaded with all the birds and equipment when doing displays( I fun a Falconry business). Do the odd bit of off roading but nothing serious.

I fitted a complete set of ProComp shockers going on almost four years ago. People on here knock them but I can only speak as I find. They survived a trip across the Sahara fully loaded and are still fine.
 
I take it the general opinion is that Britpart SuperGaz are pretty decent then? I was strongly considering going with the Old Man Emu Nitrocharger sport but was wondering if it would make more sense going for the pocket friendly SuperGaz.
6 years is excellent in my opinion even though in my part of the world the roads are pot-hole ridden and I might not get that much life from them.

Defender 110
Unladen 90% of the time
5% off-road use

Should I go with the OME, or considering cost vs value go with the SuperGaz range?
