You may change your mind about that, after you've done them
Is it plenty of blue language blood,sweat and tears?
If so it might be a garage job

Anyone know a good test to see if shock absorbers are in need of replacement.?
Bit iffy/bouncy/rolly/small potholes seem to shake my head from side to side.
What other symptoms prevail?
I appreciate in advance any help
That's a symptom of the over-firm anti-rollbars that LR use.
I took them off my Tdi 300 and that aspect of the handling has improved significantly.
Also, the general comfort level has increased, only a tiny increase in the amount of roll on corners.
Suspension is always a trade-off of loads of different things, but for me, the without arb's is a more acceptable compromise.
Cheers
