I plan on keeping the car until it has 130,000 miles. I don't drive much and eventually, when the car is maybe 13-15 years old, I want a new car. Might stretch it out a little because there are no more Saabs. Say I keep the car 140,000 miles, I think I'll change the shocks at roughly half that. Might as while enjoy the new shocks rather than changing them and selling the car after 25,000 miles.
As far as springs, it doesn't snow much, salt use is rare, and I wash the car after it the snow melts, which is 3-4 days later. Should I never change the springs if I only have the car 130-140k miles?
