A seven year old truck...Have you ever replaced the shocks yet? Must have 70,000-80,000mi? Time to replace em...

i've taken it to two places so far who have told me the suspension is fine, i've had it for 2 years and i have replaced the rear shocks (did not help the ride)
it has 150 KM on it. i was told by a friend who works in the biz that replacing the struts would help the ride (not that i trust him as he is new to the field)
