    I’ve got some that are surely 30 years old, the old ones where you can still disassemble the spring side and change the diaphragm. I just keep rebuilding them.

    Mine spend a lot of time offroad and exposed to salt grime grit rocks and christ only knows what. I so far have had to replace 3 between the truck and trailer. One that ate a fist sized rock and got more or less ripped open. One that rusted out and one that the spring broke on.
