Busted shock advice

Evening all. Whilst travelling home I noticed a squeak that didn't sound like one of the 110's normal squeaks, so I pull over and find this.
Is it safe to drive the next 2 miles home? Shock will
need replacing anyway.
Cheers!

yes its safe ,as log as its secured so cant drop down and dig in the road etc

Cheers James, I cable-tied it up and took the chance. Trip to Dingocroft tomorrow then.

Leading on from this... Whilst I'm replacing the shocks, I'm going to replace the original springs too as they're original and no longer have a working self-levelling unit to help them! I'm looking at Armstrong HD shocks and Britpart standard height HD springs, and these are what I'll go for unless anyone can recommend a comparable combination?
Incidentally, I looked up the price for a Boge self-levelling unit, which I knew were expensive, £1300 ! Chuffing hell, you can get one and a half Evoque door cards for that!

It is if the self-leveller doesn't work because they're soft as shit on their own and the Landy drags her arse along the ground if she's towing or got any weight in the back.

std non leveling springs unless you want h/d to counter loads etc depends on useage id think

It's mainly an upgrade to counter for towing heavy loads, I don't mind the stiffness of the HDs, nor am I fussed about any limitations to off-road capability.

britpatr yellow std h/d are good ive a few 110s carrying loads running on them some for many years worth fitting the gaz shockers too with h/d ,da4279 and dc5003

She has been leaving her scent about recently. Her scent being a varying combination of 10/40,ATF and EP90. Male Landies will be driven mad down the A4155.
