    Well,they got replaced this week and MAN! What a difference in ride quality!
    The did not look like they were bad on the outside but the shock inside the airbag was shot.
    They spewed oil out when the air lines were disconnected.
    No more rattle under the back of the bunk now and bob tail driving is much better too.

    If you drive down the road and see that your cab is moving a lot but the hood is not then these are needing replaced.

    There are enough wrecks out there now, try salvage yards.

    I had this issue with my new to me 09 Prostar, and when I checked around, some friends of mine had added a set of shocks to the cab at the rear.
    Fix was less than $300 installed, and it runs like a new truck! Absolutely love them, I will send photos if you want. Anyone can do it.
    Good luck!!
