what shocks after lift?

I have 5.5" blocks in the back and lift springs with spindles in the front of my 01 Screw and it's time for new shocks. I need some suggestions please, I'm tired of bouncing like I have no suspension at all...

bilstein makes shocks long enough. i have a 5" block and leafs from a supercrew and mine are all the way extended before the axle is at full droop (no weight and on jacks)

Thanks guys. I am pretty familiar with the brands available, I was really hoping somebody had a part number I could look at to see what lenght I needed.
