That happened to me on my '94 set with B&G/konis, at way less than 30k. I talked to the koni distributor/rebuilder and gave him the dimensions for the shock at the normal ride height (with the B&G's) he said the problem is that the shocks are too compressed and would continue to blow seals if run that short.
I didn't install the springs/shocks and it wasn't until I started looking at it that I realized that the B&G's are so short that my car was running on the bump stops (at rest). You might check yours out and if it hasn't been done already you might want to cut your bump stops.
