I've heard bad things about Rocky Road... But I have never done business with them either.
Give Jacque at TRDParts4U a call 866-233-4305, tell him Scott (LaOutbackTrail) sent you his way. He can get them to you, I ordered my springs from him a couple weeks ago.
I like my OME expedition heavies 938. They are stiff of course, but are not harsh at all with the stock shocks remaining in place.

Montero = Pajero in 90% of the countries where it's sold.
Pajero is named after a kind of wild cat but it's also a bad word in spanish so they use Montero in countries where spanish is widely spoken instead.
Not bad, not great. I ordered OME shocks for my Montero through Rocky Road online last year and didn't have a bad experience. It took about a week for the rear shocks to arrive then another week for the fronts. I've called a couple times to ask questions about shipping time and about sliders. While I got the answers I needed, I didn't get a general sense of "Service Culture". But this is me coming from industries where customer service is paramount.
So far my experience with the 4WD after market industry indicates a general lack of service standards. I suggest, if you're wary, to source out what you need locally. I got OME coils from a local ARB dealer who ordered it out of Australia. Turn around was one week.

Don't forget Wil and Wendy from Sierra Expeditions. They are great to deal with and can often times price match.
+1. Between Sierra Expeditions and TRDParts4U, you can't go wrong.

Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.
I just talked to Will at Sierra Exp. today...
I ordered a set of rear HD springs and shocks for my Gen III Montero. (Blew out a med. duty shock last week in the desert- too fast with too much weight.)
He told me they would arrive by the end of the week... and threw in the shipping cost.
I also called Rocky Road...
Although their price was a few dollars cheaper, they told me it would not arrive for three weeks, or more.
