How do I tell if the shocks are gone

Thanks for the adive. This is for SWMBO's road car.

What are the best for affordability/ride. Haven't got loads of bucks but need something to give her a smooth ride (No comments please) It looks like ProComp look like a good bet.

Looked in the manual and it mentions replacing the bolts on the front turrets with new locking ones.

Any guidance would be great.

thanks

'IF' the nuts on the front turret ring come undone, then yeh, replace with nylocs if you can, however, it is a lot easier to replace the rings aswell.... only a few quid, and it makes life easy....er!!

procomps are good value to my mind..... plus they come with new rubbers!!

beattiedh:
So how bad are the fronts to do.

Is it worth buying the bits and chucking a few quid to my local 4x4 man to do it.

Disco-Ron:
I would do it myself, it's not that hard, cos as said, if you're putting new parts on, you can trash the old ones!!

Range Rover Blues:
Yeap and I have a little trick with the securing rings on the front, don't waste time undoing them, over-tighten them and they snap off, out of the way.  They snap off anyway about halfway up, so beat them to it.

Fit HD securing rings from Paddocks.

Yes Pro-Comp are good, buyt from Explorer UK and get the limited lifetime warranty on them.

Monroe are good and under £30 a corner, perhaps slightly softer too, but you can't go wrong on Pro-Comp.
