Need new shocks - 03 2x4 QC 3500 DRW

I'm starting to see some cupping on the inside of my front tires, sure sign of worn shocks.
I'm not looking for a lift or anything crazy, just some quality shocks that might last more than 40K miles under my Cummins. It's a RWD, so I have to pull the boingers from inside the coils on the A Arms, not a problemo.
Like I said, just looking for some quality boingers to go in front and last a while.

I put Monroe Reflex shocks on mine and I have been very happy with them, and I think I paid $40 a piece for them.

Not too many aftermarket shocks for the 2wds. Two that comes to mind is KYB and the Monroe Reflex. Don't know if Bilsteins is making a 2wd shock for our trucks yet.

Bilstein made front shocks for my 2000 Ford 2WD F250 PS I had before I traded up to the Dodge.

Shocks

I just finished today putting on new shocks. They were the Bilstein shocks. I have drove maybe 30 miles today with the new shocks in place and I can tell you that it was money well spent. Truck rides a lot better.

Thanks for the advice. Since I'm closely tied to a bilstein dealer, I'll try those.

Mine's a SRW but I did the bilsteins on all four corners.
Got them from http://www.shockwarehouse.com
They ran something like 250 and free shipping.
