I have got one quote here for $620 for a set (front and rear) not installed.

I do realise that they obviously must be better, but for what purpose is the cost to benefit worth it?
(like pulling large loads).
The dampers we have developed so far, for the standard ute offers much better handling and pretty much stops the diagonal pitch in corners. The ride quality we have been able to develop is also more relaxed and reduced the bad shake and decay after impacts the ute is known for. The dampers are 12 stage adjustable and with heavy loads, you can adjust the damping forces to stop the floaty feel when the ute is loaded. We found some big benefits when while towing. The dampers are fully rebuildable and we can service the dampers for $80 each very quickly.
We had our very first set of Ford BA back for service after 98,000Km's and where in perfect working order but the customer wanted our latest developed codes which is now in production.

I hope this helps:-)
Cheers
Brett
