How long can you use lowering springs on your stock shocks and struts before they are destroyed?

I'm going on 3 years and mine are still sorta doing their jobs

laugh.gif It is recommended to upgrade shocks/struts at the same time as lowering your car if you don't want to go through the hassle of replacing the parts later when they do crap out.

yeah, but i am kinda concerned now.

I called them ;ast week to get a set of lowering springs for the V70XC...they had that special going on. So I called and they said no problem....then they had one left.....then they had none, and I had to wait until May to get them (which is rediculous).
They (among others) also told me that the factory V70R AWD spring set will be a direct fit, but the lowering springs for the V70R AWD will not work...which is confusing to me. If the factory items are direct fit would their replacements not be the same thing?


so, anyway, thats what happened...just to clarify.
