I wouldn't change the shocks only I have to as the stock ones are all rotten.They work ok but I don't think they would do to well with the MOT as the outer covers are rusted and falling apart.

Pick up some stock ones, give them a proper coat of paint (the stuff they paint them with is thin to say the least). Fit them then get on with something else.

I may put a set of Sachs on and as suggested paint them with hammerite or something..
They are £90 a pair on Brickwerks websight

I have a feeling I may start into painting the van myself with Rust Oleum
