The ironman kits are ok. You basically get what you pay for. I got some shocks through this mob... http://www.4wd1.com/triton.htm and thought they where reasonably priced. Personally i don't think you need to replace the standard torsion bars as they are strong enough to be wound up.

If you are carrying a bit of a load and towing then i would recommend a set of polyairs or bellows for the rear as well.

i agree withe the above, standard torsion bars are fine, unless ur going to be fitting a winch or winch bumper on the front,

also standard front shocks are fine as you dont need the extra travel
