How do you tell if shocks go bad? Give me some signs please.
What do you mean bad? The seals may be blown, but that's about it. It won't go up and down, if that's what you mean :D
Sagging, drooping, slop....
Anything related to old people and their skin should be applied. LOL!!!

Well if you have wrinkled shocks then you really have a problem. I would suggest replacing them with a younger set.;)
If they are leaking or the shafts are bent then you will need to rebuild them. If they simply don't seem to be doing their job like they used to then you may need to replace the oil in them.
You might also check the susspension area to make sure there is no dirt or rocks causing a binding issue.
Cleaning your truck after every run is an essential part of maintanence.
