if you can get new ones for $250, then go for it! OME dakar's are around $300. Downey made a popular replacement, but they're out of business now. searching here would be advisable since most yotas are famous for their "butt sag" and the topic has been covered MANY times. cheap alternatives would be: longer shackles, add-a-leafs, air bags, coil springs added, etc. just to name a few. good luck!
