Anyone got terrafirma big bore shocks?

Hey all, as above anyone got terrafirma big bore shocks?

I wanted to know if they are supposed to come with dust covers. Here is a pic of some terrafirma's with them;

But mine don't have the blue dust covers, they look like this;

It looks to me like they should have covers or something over them but perhaps for some reason the big bores don't?

Cheers

I have those exact shocks, they did not come with dust covers.

A word of warning however - in less than a year they will be all rusted and will look terrible - the same with the springs in that set. The coating quality is terrible.

Ah ok, I wonder why they don't especially as they are the expedition ones, you would think they would have them.

Oh that sucks, maybe I should waxoil them up or something?

That could work, they started rusting after only 6 months and now after 2 years have no paint left at all (that's the shocks and springs).

I have no problems with the performance though, hardly any body roll on road and they work well off road also.

I've seen some big bore shocks and they had metal dust covers on
