Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.

Due to the heat and Ultra violet lighting both have a weaker rubber bushings and had to replaced very often.

I have OME, it's softer than the Rancho. However, only gives you 2.5" lift max. They are cheaper (the whole kit will cost you AEd 2800 including steering stabilizer) ... Rancho only do the shocks so you will need the lift kit as well (Springs and other stuff). Rancho / Teraflex kit will cost around AED 4000 for 2" lift from the local market .. Don't know the cost in Quadratec you can check their site ...

I am happy with my OME, I had it now for almost a year and no complains on and offroad

Salaam Arbaab..
Its better to keep the stock one, dont go for the husle of changing and keep adjusting & changing again, when the stock one got damaged: just replaced with another one. . . . . !

BTW: why do you need it anyway, do you go offroad ! :lol:

Correction: Rancho make complete lift kits, and Teraflex also have shocks, but the combination most jeepers have is based on the advice of the Jeeps gurus as an integrated lift kit solution. This combination is the best value for money for intermediate offroading.

Additionally, most if not all shock brands have the commercial and the professional line of shocks for various applications including the coil overs and external resrvoire etc...

My personal experience is almost the same with OME shocks on my Patrol and RS9000X on two Wranglers.
