How long (years) and how many miles do you have on these shocks?

How long (years) and how many miles do you have on these shocks?

I bought them in feb 2022, installed them in March 2023. Have about 50k on them.

They dont dampen as well as they did with lighter tires, but they are sufficient for my vehicle. Also rubber bushings for longer life and better NVH.

I frequently drive around with my KDSS over-ridden so the digressive shocks help keep that sane.

Also commute with crosswinds exceed 50 mph at least 20% of the time from Nov-Jun.

Shock was delivered yesterday!

Kinda looks like the weld failed. Hopefully your next one is good for a while.

Well obviously...

I have zero concerns.

It broke during maintenance, because it was already severy damaged from dropping 18" onto my shock mount.

Got it installed. It drove a little weird for a few weeks then settled in
