So new shocks all the way around or just the fronts?

Well obviously you only really need them in the front, but trust me, you will LOVE upgrading from the stock shocks at all four corners...

I put the Pro Comp 3000s on my Jeep and am very satisfied with them, at the time they were buy 3 get one free. They are a hydrogen shock and are fine on my 3800 lb. Grand Cherokee. For a full size truck I think you'll need a nitrogen shock like their 9000 series. Not sure if they are still buy 3 get 1, but 4 Wheel Parts owns Pro Comp so they are ALWAYS giving a deal of some sort on them. Other than the extreme bargain basement 1000 series, I've never talked to anyone displeased in the Pro Comps.

Again, if you should buy, CALL rather than order online, you need to tell them you have a level kit on the front and no lift on the rear, they will cross reference the right shock for you.

Also good choices in that price range would be Skyjacker, Rough Country and Black Diamond. Premium shocks would be Bilstein and Rancho. I have the Rancho 9000s on my truck...
