I recently changed all four on the SD.............185K on the clock. The two rear shocks were definitely shot.......leaking oil.........and allowing the vehicle to hop all over the pavement.
The two front shocks looked perfectly fine. No oil leaks and the vehicle did not exhibit any pronounced hop on the front end.
The new shocks on the front might perform slightly better than the originals.........but........I'll not swear to it...........it could certainly be the placebo effect.
I gave the two front shocks to Hattie for possible use on the SD. I definitely believe that they are serviceable.
