Basically, the same thing you already have. I'm pretty sure we have spoken about the complexity of matching up new front shocks on these frames, but let me try again. ATV shocks are too hard, sled shocks are too long, kart shocks are pogo sticks. The lightweight front end is very tough to find a shock that compliments it, thats why you don't see anyone jumping in and saying "buy [blank] shock for your yerf". We are trying with mixed results to find something cheap, but the Works brand shocks are the true replacement, but at $400 a pair, not many want to drop coin on those. The blasters are the preferred upgrade for the rear, but you are likely going to need to weld in new mounts like I did.
