Re: Recommended mileage for shock replacement time 2018

I'll tell you what, the days of $9 shocks are long gone!
I recently looked up rear shocks for my 91 pkup. Cheapest priced ones were $50 a piece.
My gauge for replacement has always been a visual inspection and if the shocks were the least bit wet looking, they are leaking oil and are bad. Another test is if the vehicle bounces more than twice after a dip in the road they were suspect.
