Greetings from downunder.  I have an '82 Transporter (camper).
The shock absorbers are all original.  I am wondering what
comments people have on replacing them.  I ask, because the front
left one has just commenced to leak a drop of oil occasionally.

How does one decide it is time to replace?  Apart from oil leaks,
that is?

Thanks in advance.
