Re: Front Shocks Wearing Out FAST!!!!

If ride height is out of specs, the shocks will wear faster due to not operating within the range they were designed to operate in. Have an experienced alignment shop check, and adjust if necessary, front chassis ride height. It is done by adjusting the torsion bars. After ride height is within specs, check and adjust if necessary, camber, caster, and toe in. Ride height must be adjusted BEFORE the wheel alignment....ride height directly affects alignment angles. Alignment angles do not affect chassis ride height. Be sure to have them check rear ride height also. If the rear is out of specs it requires new rear springs to correct it.
