I'm been thinking about replacing the rear stocks on my truck and I not know which one is better? I'm looking to take some of the bounce out of the rear. Will new shocks helps?

I recently put Bilstein 5100s all around and it handles much better. Like others said, after spending an hour trying to get the top nut off I used an impact wrench and it took about a 1/2 second to shoot that sucker across the garage. Over all, not any harder than other trucks. Backs very easy.
