The shocks have 18K miles on them. Do all of these go bad eventually. I dont want to buy a car that needs 4 grand in shocks.I know there adjustable, but give me some ideas, as i hear and read these shocks leak for some reason.
Thanks

Only early model 2000s had Konis, and by around March build they had gone to the Dynamic Suspension shocks. Alot of folks just replace with the Koni shocks, as they work fantastic. Too many folks complained they rattled a bit ( did the same thing on other makes ), so Dodge came up with the change.
Just get Konis when your need them or upgrade to Motons or other choices.

you can also replace with OEM GTS shocks correct ?
which can be found cheaper and also takeoffs can be found
I wouldn't assume a rebuild would be that expensive. Coilovers are pretty standard parts that require rebuilds.

Let me see if I have this right: You are saying you can replace the D.S. ACR shocks with shocks fron a regular Viper? Do you change springs too, or just the shocks? Doesn't this mean an alignment change would be required? Does the "fork" on the D.S. shock fit the standard Viper Shock? I don't race my car and I've thought about switching shocks while I send the D.S. shocks off for overhaul.
