Heavy Duty Shocks

Hey guys I have a 1996 Ford F250 7.3 diesel PS. My shocks are shot and need to be replaced. Does anyone have any recommendations on a particular brand or size? This is my first time replacing them so any help would be greatly appreciated. If it helps I push snow too.

Thanks,

CCLC1021

I have bilsteins(5125series) .Snow is not anything i have much to do with other than doing doughnuts in it. They ride fine.my truck has a 3" lift and 33's and is basically my family stationwagon with a bed. Bill has bilsteins also. Im willing to bet he will chime in also as to his experience.
