A Mono shock is a single tube shock and is old a school mate. I'd be chasing a Gas shock (nitrogen) over a foam cell shock. The Nitrogen reduces heat and therefore reduces shock fade over corrugations.
A Remote res shock just has more Gas mate
more gas = less shack fade when used on rough roads.
The remote res shock will make very little difference to slow bush work mate. Other than the fact that a remote res shock is generally at the higher end of the market so is likely a better shock all round.
A variable valving shock is far better suited to your needs over an adjustable shock that you have to set up yourself. (Toughdog)
The Old Man Emu ticks all those boxes and is why I am a fan mate. Don't reinvent the wheel if you don't have too.
I am very very pleased with the Old Man Emu matched springs and shocks package mate. If you absolutely Have to buy something other that a matched set then think about the Superior Springs. I have them in the GQ and they replaced the flexi coils and OMFG!!!!! Soooooo much nicer.
I spent a long time researching the products before settling on the Suspension Stuff flexi coils and Boss Shocks and Superior everything else. Suspension stuff supplied the Coils and Shocks based on the weight of my car. It was Never Right, drove like a pig and I have now replaced the coils and shocks. The shocks have been replaced twice. Don't rate it at all mate. You only want to do it once Mick.
Old Man Emu have 30 years of Research and Development behind them and their Springs and Shocks. Not many other Manufacturers can make that claim. And it should not be undervalued.
