Which shock absorbers?

Hello everybody
I need your help on deciding for front shock absorbers in my truck. I have been searching online for other people's opinions and experiences, but I haven't found much feedback on desert driving.
I have a Tahoe truck with torsion bar system at the front. It has a 4" lift on the suspension and another 4" on the body. I need something that can handle the weight and be stiff enough to be able to play in the sand.
So far, the BILSTEIN B8 5100 seems to be a favourite for offroaders, along with the RANCHO 9000XL. As I am not very knowledgeable in suspension stuff, I would greatly appreciate all the help I can get, especially from big/heavy truck owners.
Thank you in advance for your time
