worn front shocks
can worn out shock damage the my front end? It will be a few months before i can replace them. I was told ridding on pavment will be ok for now, but to watch my tires for uneven wear. Is this correct and why the tire wear? thanks 87 f150 4.9

Does the front end bounce much more than once when you hit a speed bump or a driveway curb at reasonable speed?
I have seen some older Fords, 70's, hit a chuckhole in the road (coming toward me ) and the whole front suspenson start bouncing - that's scary. As long as you don't feel shimmy in front wheels should be OK for a while. Good luck.
