Front shock recommendation for '87 4Runner?

This stock suspension (+extra leaf in the back) '87 4Runner needs new front shocks (she bounces) and I'm looking for recommendations.

Some have talked up the Blisteins (24-011396 (F4-B46-1139-H1)) http://www.eshocks.com/bil_Ind.asp?VC=59Q48&SubChar=Q.

Is this the "go to" option, or is there another that'd be good for this daily-driver with some happy new Cooper Destination At3's (30x9.50R15) on it? It doesn't see crazy off-road time.

Thanks in advance!

If you need something budget friendly, I used KYB Gas-a-justs on my 94 runner. On road was greatly improved but they are quite stiff anywhere else.
