There is nothing wrong with the factory design.
It's been around long enough now & is very well proven.

No point in doing duel shocks.
Just get some Decent after market shocks for all around.
By decent ones I mean over £500.
Also you could have the axle rebuilt if your that worried.
Bilstein
AVO
Is a couple of names you can look at.
Hope this helps.

Apart from the bearings wearing out on them!

No worse then other manufacturers rear axle / beam designs that require periodic replacement maintenance parts.
