Just don't get the mustang shocks unless you're gonna just go to the mall with 'em.  They get wrecked fast.

Still loving my Doestech's.

Just remember that longer shocks usually have less compression room.  Topping or bottoming out shocks are the hardest thing on shocks and will quickly ruin them.  If you can feel/hear an abrupt Thunk when going over ruts or bumps then your shocks are not going to last long.
