    You are about 20k miles from needing a rebuild so just over 50% of the way there. Not sure how much you drive but 20k is about 2 years out for me.
    If you are 100% street use and you are not having ride issues just wait until they leak or you have ride issues for the rebuild in my opinion.

    Also check with hour local off-road shops. Any shop worth anything can rebuild a Fox shock. Saves you shipping.
    If they can’t rebuild a Fox shock that is a pretty good indicator you probably need another shop anyway.

    I’ve got 60k on mine they still perform and feel the same as day one. I’ll prob have mine all rebuilt soon just to keep up on it. The only
    Thing I can’t stand is the rusty springs they need re coated bad

    Auto detail, vinyl wrap specialist. Truck has a 300gal fresh water tank for spot free water while detailing and a Honda pressure washer
    I purchased a used pair with 20k miles on them. I sent them to fox to have rebuilt. Took about 4 weeks door to door. Around $133 per shock to rebuild plus shipping. Glad I did this before they go on truck.
