ARB long rear shocks they cost me $158USA for the shocks (now they are $170 because they did a special for me) and $38USA for the bumptops and $60USA freight.

Approx $310AU total. Still trying to find out where they came from.

Whats the ride like? I havent really noticed any difference from the N132's, but then again I havent taken it out yet, only fitted them on Monday.

I just had a look at the thread, they sure are longer. Will you need to replace/change the spings with longer spings to match up on length?

From what i have read, no but time will tell. I have a 10mm TJ rear spacer in the rear so hopefully that will be a bit of cheap insurance.

OK, as they are longer are they still a 2" lift shock or considered more?

They were a special build for the US guys (to their spec apparently) the valving seems to be firmer. Anyway I have updated the thread with some flex shots. See what you think.
