Shock replacement

I'm looking to get new shock for my 06 nismo 4x2. The ones on there are a little bouncy and I feel they'll be on their way out in due time. What seems to be the best shock for regular driving and offroad use (driving trails and mild climbing)?

I'm new to trucks and going UP is a baffling thought to me as I'm used to going DOWN with my 240sx's. I enjoy my stock ride height but I wouldnt mind going up a little. I presume I'd need more than just new shocks for this though?

There's a lot of articles on here if you just search a bit dude, but seen as how I'm not a complete arsehole...

You have basically 2 options:

brand new aftermarket coilovers which are 760 and up plus shipping, which can get you up to 4 inches of lift for a 4x2

or Bilstein 5100s, which will replace your shock only for about 200 plus shipping (and more in labour) but apparently have a good ride on them and offer .5-2.5 inches of lift. Best price I've seen is at shockwarehouse.com. I almost it a set before I got a deal on coilovers and upper arms
