Default replacing shocks

What brands should I look at for shocks? Rancho, Bilstein, Monroe? It's for a 2003 Dodge 1500 4x4, mostly for towing, not lifted.

New blistein hd shock would be the best thing for you, but also think about an air bags system to to help out with the extra load when towing so your not putting alot of stress on the springs
