Do they do it for the 2004 4x4 with the torsion bars as well? I have just found the 4600's?! Are they the same as the 5100's?

No idea if they fit. I know they are quite popular with the second gen guys, along with the KYB's... (don't remember the model number of those though.) Given you are not in the USA, I have no idea what availability is gonna be like.

Bilstein is always a good option I think. Price is a bit higher but I think I will try and test them, especially with the bigger and wider tires/rims I hope they will smoothen out the ride.

Swapped the parts today, new sway bar bushings and new end links and new Bilstein 4600 shocks - car rides like new! What a difference! No noise and those shocks are smooooth as silk! Love it!
