because that is what the manufacturer says (by 500k miles), and that is usually when they start to dry up as well based on experiences.

put a glas of water on top of the engine and run it. -- record it with video on your phone.

replace the damper, then do the same. - You will see what the differences are.

Of course, it is not water your trying to keep quieted down,.. its the entire electrical system, the electronics, and all the other components that are sensitive to excess vibration.

Excess vibration is the killer of many things on a truck. Its best to keep after minimizing it, as it only costs you a lot more not to.
