rear air shocks leaking

If oil is leaking out of the air shocks does this mean they need to be replaced?

Looks fairly easy to replace. Do they need to be charged or anything like that or just bolt them on?

BillBoost37 is a glorious beacon of light

They are a very easy direct bolt on, hook up the airline (if equipped) and call it a day.

The 00-05'* really have a nice setup in that regard.

YES,
they need to be replaced if leaking.
about every 60K miles, they need to be replaced.
