suspension too soft

2002 "No Boundaries" edition of Expedition. I've got the engine running where I want it for now but when I step on it hard the whole truck bounces too much while going thru the gears. Any recommendation on aftermarket shocks that would give it a tighter ride and overall better handling?

Thanks

I am going to recommend Bilstein's. Alot of guys(and gals) on this board swear by them including myself. They are probably one of the best handling upgrades that you can do for your Expy.
As soon as I put mine on I could feel alot less dive and squat from braking and a accelerating. The truck steers with more confidence and aplomb. If your shocks are due it is definitely a worthwhile upgrade over the stockers.
