gas-a-just shocks

ive had a set of gas-a-just shocks on the rear of my car for like a year now but lately they have been sagging can they be adjusted or refilled or are they only self adjusting?

If you are talking after market, then gas shocks that are bad cannot be refill. But if shocks are OK, then check springs because they are designed to level and keep the car at a normal ride height. Shocks keep the car from bouncing like an urethane ball when springs due their trick.
