Default OME lift.. what front shocks to use?

I ordered my lift and I want to replace the front shocks at the same time. Any recommendations on what to use?

I put in Monroe Sensa-Tracs in the front when I installed my OME kit.

I bought I frm rocky road outfitters in the us. I don't have the part numbers anymore. Any 4x4 shop should be able to order it for u. You'd prolly save on duty, and broker fees that bit me if u did.

I called ARB USA and they recommend using whatever factory struts you want. I personally prefer KYB and even my local Toyota dealer suggested the KYB Excel-G/GR-2.
