Need Some 2" Lift Shocks

Been getting the suspension on my W250 propped back up to where it should be and maybe a little more - I can feel the front shocks topping out when I go over any decent sized bump. Thinking I am sitting about 1 1/2" - 2" taller than stock.

What is a good shock to run on these old pigs? I have the back end riding very well, and the front is MUCH better than stock (still stiff, but better). I'm thinking that I want to stay hydraulic as gas shocks seem to make any old leaf sprung 4X4 ride worse - the problem is, most shock nowadays seem to be gas charged.

Opinions on a good set of shocks?

I've run both the Rancho 5000 series for a lifted W250, and now the Bilstein 33185552. I really can't tell the difference.
