There's no doubt about it: Age requires a stronger prescription. Even OE replacement shocks may not be "good enough" for used vehicles. OE shocks and struts are designed and built to work well on a brand new vehicle rather than one with 50,000 miles or more. As a vehicle and its tire control components age and wear, they allow more steering and suspension movements. When you think about it, replacing shocks and struts with OE units on a used vehicle can be like putting used parts back on the vehicle. OE shocks and struts are not designed to compensate for additional suspension wear or movements.
