Springs will weaken with use.If the ride height has not changed over time,they are still at spec.
I've got 111,000 on mine and have not ever considered spring replacement,nor do I anticipate doing so.

I have some Stockers with 50K on them if your interested. I dont need them. But I dont think they really wear out. Never heard of them doing that.
