How do I know if my shocks need replaced?
My vehicle is at 65,000, nearly all highway miles (original brake pads at 40%) and I like taking preventative action before larger problems arise. If it turns out the shocks are worn based on the results of whatever test you guys recommend would I get away with simply replacing the shocks or do I need to replace other components in addition to the shocks? What are the best shocks for this vehicle currently available if I simply what a comfortable "touring" ride?
Thank you

I'm not sure what sort of suspension/shocks your versions comes with. I have read heavily on this forum and others that air suspension problems are expensive and very noticeable. I hope you get answers to your questions.
