76 highboy shocks

I installed a skyjacker lift and shocks on my 76 f250 highboy and it rides much better but I'm wondering if I should go with hydro shocks instead of nitro to get a better ride.My right front shock also leans back where as the left is straight up and down.

the lift you just put on rides so stiff you wont be able to tell a difference....but the hydros give a bouncier ride..not near the dampning of the gas pressurized nitro

It definitely rides better than stock. What kit would you have recommended?
