2" inch lift

Sensible route, for 1" lift over standard (your old springs might have sagged too) you can just fit and forget.

The Woodhead units are good, don't get me wrong but as soon as you fit 235/70s, or drive a bit fast or lift the C of G then I'd rather be on something a bit better.

Shall we say I've found the limit of them on my LSE, which is a shame becasue the ride is now harder with Pro-Comp.

Monroe are a good budget shocker, about hlafway between the 2 in price, just watch the rear mounting eye as they have a reputation for opening up.

Yes, sorry Woodhead and Armstrong were both OE suppliers, some dealers stock one, some the other.
