  An old rule of thumb for checking to see if the shock absorbers are working is to jump up and down on the front or rear bumper and observe how the vehicle responds once you get off. If the vehicle continues to bounce up and down, you have a problem with the shocks. If the vehicle bounces just once, the shocks are doing their job.

  If you have a 35 station wagon you should probably use the passenger car forum for more answers.
