rang up supercheap auto and also repco today for these, apparently the part numbers don't match up on their system...

They've offered to do a little research and to see if they can find the parts, if they come up with another number i'll post it here. If anyone knows any more details or a different part number, we should get the guide amended.

They are softer than the wagon shocks though, and allow for epic downtravel :D .
Oh and I run them on the front of mine :P

Witch shocks would be better with extended shackles and two in lifted springs

As bluesuzy said, these will be fine. Most people use these as a cheap option to replace the factory shocks that top out with 2 inch lift.
