Which Gabriel Shocks for 03" Grand Cherokee

I've searched this for two days now...so many options. Not sure what to do. Bone stock grand Cherokee, what should I do? Autozone has 20% of Gabriel's ?
Just looking for some feedback on what you guys have had good luck with!
Thanks in advance !

After a day of looking I'm leaning towards the bilsteins..everyone seems to hate Gabriel's.
However I can't find them for a stock wj. I don't off road this, it's the wife's rig, are these the shocks I want?

I would be very comfortable putting Bilsteins on my wife's jeep.

I emailed Kolak. Recommended the 4600's said a better shock cannot be bought for the truck. Sounds like the ones to have !

I don't like the Gabriel's. When my Jeeps are stock I normally go with whatever Monroe Sensatrac fits that particular model (great ride and not expensive). Lifted I would always choose Bilsteins, they ride great and perform off-road wonderfully.

So I don't see anything wrong with the choice of Bilsteins!
