I made contact with Udo asking his advice re replacement. He replied: *"Hi
Michael, if there not dripping oil, there will be good for 170-200k miles.
You can full compress each and check that the chrome shaft is not more
visible than 1/2".*
There are presently no leaks nor untoward noises. Perhaps I'll dismount the
shocks and do the compression test but it sounds like I have about 100,000
miles of life left in them. I hope I can use that up.
