I will have to pay some attention. I did mine preemptively in July last year bc it was all 8 year old parts. Did the steering hoses, and all fluids, too.

Here is a pic almost right after that maintenance work was done. Not sure what it is like today, but I am about 80 shy of taking my 37k mile pic. I'll let you know.
