do you want OEM or something different?
If oem there are many "ready struts" out there on the interwebs that are simple swaps for the front and you can find matching OEM style rears very quickly also.
If you are looking to upgrade, the 5100 Bilsteins are very popular.

I just installed the Rancho Quick Lifts on the front of my 2006 XLT and they did raise it 1-2 inches.
"The new Rancho Loaded quickLIFT technology includes the application-matched of quickLIFT with the addition of coil spring and upper mounting plate and no extra cost. Rancho Loaded quickLIFT is finished in liquid metallic silver. This new product is very easy to install for shops and do-it-yourselfers because it is one full suspension unit and generally can put on the vehicle in twenty minutes per corner. Loaded quickLIFT provides 1 to 2.5 inches of additional lift, allowing for the use of larger wheel and tire packages up to 35 inches, which provides an aggressive vehicle stance.
