Default ?? How long before my stock 2004 shocks are gone??

My current 2004 Z06 has 70,000 miles.

Daily driven around the rough roads in Los Angeles.

I've noticed the front bottoming out easier around driveways, etc...

Your thoughts?????

What signs should I look for??

70k miles - I'd replace them if it were mine

They will bottom out more, losses in handling due to less rebound(might not be as evident with after market sway bars).

A good test is to pull the shock out and see if you can move it with your hand. If its that loose you should replace them.
