Time For New Shocks - HD Bilsteins Or Koni-FSD?

I seek the opinion of people with experience with either type on their class C or B+ Ford E350 or E450. My red colored Koni-RV adjustable shocks in front are in need of replacement. I am thinking ...

Newbiecampers,
As IAMICHABOD noted, the fronts greatly reduced the porpoising without degrading the ride. The rears, along with airbags did increase the harshness somewhat. I can reduce the airbag pressures to get a little mores suspension "compliance" at the expense of a bit more sway...oh well.
The other change I made on the front was to install Sumo's. I've put about 2K miles on them and still haven't decided if they made a positive change or just simply stiffened the front suspension.
