Default Front or rear shocks?

What will give you a better ride have better shocks in the front or rear?

All four should be changed so they provide the same ride.

What I mean is I got skyjacker hydro 7000 for the rear and thought on getting blistein for the front will the better quality in the front shocks make a diff? Or should I just stick with the skyjackers in the front also?

Put the better ones in the front. I was thinking same type of thing, except bilstein resivoir shocks in the front and 5100's in the back.

I drove my sister's jk with a similar set up and it rode like a cloud.
