[QUOTE="Hanr3, post: 159079, member: 1055"] When you change your shocks is up to you, however realize shocks play a role in tire longevity, ball joint longevity, tie-rods, braking, etc. Basically your suspension works as a unit, if one aspect is weak or failing the others will suffer. IF you let them go, you could be looking at replacing all the other parts as well. Including new tires. Worn shocks also play a huge role in your vehicles ability to stop safely. It will take your vehicle longer to stop with worn shocks compared to new shocks. Yes, there is a reason for the recommendation... And NO it's not to drum up business. They could care less if you replace your shocks, there isn't much money to be made in replacing them. [/QUOTE]
