Shock Absorber Replacement

[win42]

I had just replaced my shocks on my 91 Royale at 67,000 Mi to cure side leans on corners and some porpusing. My newest 2000 Liberty may be showing signs of needing them at 60,000 Mi.. On our last trip down I70 which is a horrible road in Utah it catapulted its way down the road. It does not have any bad traits on normal roads but I'm looking for a consensus of when we need to think about changing shocks. Any thoughts?

Change em.

If they are letting the coach porpoise change them. You should notice a dramatic change in how it handles.

We recently changed our steer shocks at 112000 miles and experienced a significant improvement in front-end stability. Previous shocks were not OEM indicating they had been changed at least once before. Would suspect that driving on crowned 2 lane highways with worn out shocks could be very bad.

I will be ordering KONI shocks all around as soon as Kevin gets a deal on them for me. ha ha I put Koni's on the front of the Royale and Monroes from Prevost on the rear and tags. Made a big difference.

Now I'm $uporting two bu$$e$ I think I better rob a bank. Hey buddy wanna buy a bu$.

Harry, why don't you take off the high priced Koni's on your 92 and put on prevost shocks, they are around $28 each. Put the good ones on the 00?

Just trying to save you some $$$, you oil stock $$$ holder!

Having never put shocks on a bus, is this something one can do on your own, or best left to the grease pit crew?

Warren, I changed all the shocks on my bus last year, and I thought it was a relatively easy job. It probably took an average of 30 minutes per shock because I removed some rubber covers in the area of the drive wheels to allow easy access to the shocks.
