Bilstein question/advice wanted

I am considering running Bilstiens on my '89 truck(2 wheel drive), because My right front edelbrock is soft from a slam intoa pothole., and they are no longer made9Edelbrocks) for my year truck. My question about Bilstiens is concerning Ride Vs. Control. I dpont want my kidneys slammed, but i want a reasonable degreee of vehicle control.Anyone have any experience with Bilstiens?Any other reccomendationss. I have heard mention of the Tokiko Hydraulics.Maybe I shou;ld just get a set of gabriels gas for a not too harsh ride and adequate control? I have gabriels on the back right now, and they arev a little soft, but pretty comfortable and big and rugged. Thanks
