Default shocks?

starting to slowly work on suspension, as fast as the money comes in.
can i start with just replacing all 4 shocks?
and what would that do to my suspension since i would have 4 new shocks and the rest would be stock?

i mean if the torsion bars and leaf springs and all other suspension components were stock, could i replace only the shocks?
and would that help at all even though the rest of the suspension is stock

Shocks are a wear item & get replaced all the time....the springs & such are lifetime components & do not get replaced usually unless you are modding for a special purpose...go ahead & put new shocks on but only if yours are bad! How many miles on them? I get around 70,000 miles to over 100,000 miles out of mine.
