Used. One front shock is brand new that was replaced under warranty. Never put on truck. The other front needs a rebuild. There is corrosion from Mid West weather. 15k on blown shock.

For optimal performance the factory Fox shocks should be rebuilt every 30-35k miles. If you go to Fox's site and look up the service interval it will say complete rebuild, of all oil,seals and nitrogen at 40k miles with 100 % on road driving . Any offroad knocks that down . Leaking or not the oil breaks down just like in a motor .

Sir your shocks should be on close to their 3rd rebuild by now .

Why would you think you might need a rebuild? Potholes. Hey maybe I like to off-road and keep dirty. Not a street queen. Please no dumb questions. Use your head or common sense.

So because a manufacture who is in business to sell what it manufactures states that its product needs to be repaired/rebuilt ever so often that I should just abide by that because they say so? Well that may be very profitable for the manufacture but where I come from if it's not broken don't fix it. I'd would be interested in getting them rebuilt when the time comes that they need it.

Don't mean to hack your thread, but seems like a place to ask ya'll a question. I have heard the shock rebuild since I bought the truck, and it will not be warranty. Here is my question, if they are not leaking, what is the indication they need to be rebuilt? I realize that Fox says every 40k, but I kinda compare it to things like transmission fluid change, front/rear end lube, transfer case, etc., they have mileage listed changes, but most folks I know do not do it unless there is a problem. Thanks.
