Default Suspension issue or something else ?

Hello there. I had fixed my earlier issue of fixing mileage on my car through this forum and I am back again for another issue

suspension ? 🤣
so my car rides pretty smooth over smooth newly built road almost like I am in an airplane but when the road gets a bit rough, the roughness is easily felt in the car. Is it the suspension though? When going over the hump it feels like my car just goes over the hump and the jump can be felt everywhere. The car doesn’t bounce but it’s like a mortar brick just going over the hump like a solid brick.
Rough road vibration felt easily and over the hump feels like the whole car jumps and feels a bit uncomfortable.
I took it to mechanic and he said the shock absorber is leaking but idk could it have been the rain as well?
I have seen Gabriel shock on eBay for 202$ and seems like a good price for each. Any idea on the brand ? Is it good enough ?

Idf you have a leaking strut, I replaced both sides. Rain has nothing to do w/ it. It'd be great to replace all 4 struts. Use KYB struts only & use the oem springs.......
