Updating the suspension

I'm in the process of replacing and repairing any suspension issues on my 72 Jimmy, and I'm trying to decide on bushings and shocks. The truck has completely stock suspension, and is mostly a highway truck. I do plan on doing some overlanding in it, so I would like some give to the shocks.

From what I've read on here, it seems most are recommending poly leaf bushings, but stick to rubber for the body, and Bilstein or Rancho 9000's for shocks.

What are you guys running? Anything to avoid?
