Default rear shocks for 4/7 kit that ride better?

So I have the djm style 4/7 kit on my 07 nnbs but want to change to a different shock in the rear and can't seem to find what bilstein shock people are using, seen some adjustable ones but can't seem to find them. Any inputs? TIA

I ended up using an air shock set from an ‘80 c10.

Rides heavens better over the Belltechs.

those won't work for me bc of the mount type, but did those length measurements work for a 7 inch drop?
