Default Shocker replacement 2012 Laredo

Hi All,
My 2012 CRD Jeep has a Murchison 2" steel lift fitted back when close to new.
Jeep is now at 140,000ks and a lot of "creaking" noises from front suspension after a recent 8500k trip including the Oodnadata among others totalling about 2000ks of offroad towing a camper trailer.
Pedders and another local (WA) company are suggesting that I need to replace shocks, I tend to agree but what have you guys fitted? Both are suggesting Bilstiens.
The rear at present also has aftermarket air bags fitted for that trip when GVM was around max including the TBM.
I am about to move up to a caravan that has an ATM of 3300, tare 2700.

Do I replace shocks with what is suggested? What have you done ?

Any feedback welcome

I would fit Bilsteins, I would do all 4 or would not do it at all.
