Default Which Shocks?

Hi,

I have an 04 Ram 1500 5.7 HEMI 4doors 4WD and I would like to replace my shocks. My truck is bouncing too much and I am sure the problem comes from my shocks. I would like to know which shocks would you recommend me? I found some bilstein on ebay at $247 for 4 shocks... Are these good? Do you have something you would recommend? BTW, my trock is not dropped or lifted and I want to keep it like that..

Thanks!!
