Replacement shocks for a Ford 450 chassis C options/opinions

We have an '07 Coachmen Freelander 32' Class C with 53,000 miles on the dial. It is hitting the pavement joints pretty good, shaking up the contents, so I'm thinking maybe new shocks would be a good idea; we replaced the tires a year or so ago & they are at the plated pressures. I've done quite a bit of searching & have some ideas but here's what I'd like:
If you have had a similar coach & replaced the shocks, I'd like to hear your opinions.
Please provide:
1. Year/model 2. Mileage 3. What shocks you bought/cost 4. Why you bought them 5. Results/opinions.

Thank you in advance!

I have a 2008 Winnebago Outlook, 29', Class C. I replaced all 4 shocks and the steering dampner with Bilstein replacements. I bought them online at e-shocks for a very good price. I am totally satisfied with the results in handling. I had about 11,000 miles on it when I replaced them. Good luck and happy camping.

Also, we run close to the 16,000 lb chassis rating when we're loaded, down the highway, if that impacts your suggestions...
