Default stock shock life

more crying from me: how long do the stock shocks last generally? at a little over 30,000 miles and it seems like i have a lot more body roll than i should, especially in transitions. i also hopped a curb a while ago(i know) doing maybe 20, what are the chances of the killing a shock or two?

I don't know how often people changed their , but I tdo know that shocks do not last as long as people think. I would changed them out every 3-4 years regardless of mileage, less if you track your car regularly. I rode in 03 with 13000 miles a while ago and the shocks were pretty much dead.
