Default Bilstein 5100 or Rancho shocks

So I have been looking over some threads and seems like 50/50 between the two. Which ones would you recommend for my F150 with 6in lift. Also I found the Bilsteins for lifted trucks in Topguncustomz but can't seem to find the Ranchos in a 6in lift size. Anyone know any part numbers for the Ranchos in 6in lift. I am in the middle of replacing my leaf springs and one of the procomp shocks is done for. So I figured it's a good time to replace the shocks including the front 6 in spacer.

I have used Bilstein on my last few trucks. Both in stock configuration. I would buy them again. I have heard good things about the Rancho ones as well. But I am so happy with the Bilsein's I can't see changing. They are firm yet great ride. Everyone who rides in my truck says it feels like a brand new one.

Any idea who actually builds the Rancho shock, I'm just curious. From everything I've heard the Billstien is an excellent product.
