To really get the benefit of new shocks, you need springs with the proper rate to support what you are trying to accomplish.
From all the reading I've done on this, OME has put together a pretty good set of springs/shocks. Fabtek and Teraflex are the other names people throw out here.
Personally though, I've never heard of the high end shock companies putting together a spring/shock package for the JK (ie: works performance, PEP, FOX, Ohlins etc)

I mail to the guy in an Italian forum who did installed the Ohlins shocks. I understand it is pretty expensive, but these shock are custom made. The guy requested to Ohlins a specific shock and he had provided spec (length extension...) so Ohlins built on request the shocks.
From my motobicke race track I have very specific Ohlins shocks where you can adjust evrything from low freq to high freq (breaking, filtering vibration).

I would recommend King shocks, or coilovers in this case. Off Road Evolution has some sick suspension setups for rock crawling and/or desert racing styles. Call them for prices, I have no clue how much I've spent on this Jeep. This setup work very well for what your looking for......
