[QUOTE="dsiggi, post: 2019569, member: 25674"] Shocks can be non leaking and the fluid can be beyond its life. So this is only half correct. Your 65k shocks for sure need a rebuild. Are they ok, sure, are they performing the way they are intended. For sure they are not. I rebuilt mine at 54k and it made a huge difference, but they weren't leaking or unsafe by any means. The rebound just isnt what it once was and the shock does not control the wheel in the same way as the fluid breaks down from heat. I'm not at 98.5k miles so about 45k on the rebuild at can already tell they should be done. Rebuild your shocks people or at least have a proper understanding of the system they were designed to be.
