Stumpjumper shock upgrade options?

Hey all,

Has anyone upgraded the shock on their Stumpjumper and gone for something other than the standard Rt/rt3 autosag?

A mate has a 2017 29er which has a low end Monarch 2 position with autosag. I pulled it apart to do a service and noticed the damper felt horrible. Turned out there was no oil left in the topside of the ifp. Everything looked good but after I put a kit though it it was leaking oil around the damper shaft. Replaced the head seal a 2nd time with rhe same result!
As he’s already spent $100 on it he’s not keen on throwing more money at what is a very average shock to begin with!

Any suggestions?
