Sounds like there'll be no heavy load carrying or towing going on, so no need for any type of HD shock.
I've purchased Monroe Reflex for a couple of trucks, and been fairly happy with them, for what they are / cost (I've gotten mine from Rock). You could go with these in the front and rear. They're cheap enough so that if you hate them, you won't feel too bad about spending coin later to replace them with something better. If you like them, Monroe and Rock back them with a lifetime warranty. They'll handle better than the stockers with 200K on them; what I can't tell you is how long the Reflex themselves will last.
If you want cheaper than that, Detroit Axle will have a cheaper solution (they often have entire front suspension kits for a couple hundred bucks). Some people like them; some have had issues. But I can't think of a cheaper solution, if you decide you want to R&R the entire front end, but money's tight at the moment.
BTW... your front suspension isn't 'strut', it's a shock inside coil spring (or 'coilover', if you prefer). If price is a concern, you could keep the stock springs, get a new mount kit for about $20, the cost of the shocks, and 'rent' the tools you'll need from your local retail auto parts store. The 'quick struts' run about $200, last I checked (I'm sure they're more, now), so you can see the cost savings here, for a bit of work on your part. Suspension ain't
that hard, and there's plenty of references online, here and elsewhere.
Because you're going to be pulling off the front knuckles, rotors, etc., to get to the springs / shocks, you may want to evaluate whether any other new parts would be worthwhile, up front (ball joints, brakes, etc.) Plus the swaybar bushings & end links that the last poster mentioned, which are cheap and pretty easy to do.
You mentioned replacing the rear sway links & trailing arms, so you're not a complete novice. Look over what's required, online; do your homework and get a feeling for if your mechanic skill level is up to the tasks. Then plan your work and work your plan. 🛠️
