Default Smooth shocks

I just replaced the shocks on my 03 Durango 4x4 with the 4.7. I put Gabriel ProGuards on them and they ride really harsh, especially considering my town loves to neglect roads. So what’s the best shock for the smoothest, least-harsh ride for the kid hauler?

Ah, right. Columbus day. Or, indigenous peoples day, depending on where you live.

The hell? I'm guessing that's some overly sensitive liberal version of the day?
