With out a doubt Bilstein is your best bet. I have Ranchos and Love um, but If I had the money I would have gone the Bilsteins.

Witch ranchos you have. Is it the RS900XL, because I am interested in them with the Quick Lift up leveling front. I like the idea of binge able to adjust the ride. From what I read it is softer to harder than stock.

Oh forgot to mention mine is 5.4 2005 Lariat.
