When I bought my 2006 4/4 last year it already had the SSL front end so I’ve known no difference. But I, and more importantly my regular travelling companion, found the rear end harsh and constantly bottoming out. Front and rear shocks were bilstein so not factory fit.
Whilst travelling in Cornwall earlier this year the rear lower shock mounts failed. Managed to get a temporary repair but took it to New Elms on my return and had some Rutherford AVO rear shocks and mounts fitted - it has transformed the car
And as others have said, it was an honest job and no attempt to up-sell and replace the fronts. In fact when test driving after the repair Darren said the front end set up was good and needed no work
So I can’t recommend New Elms highly enough
