So these things are getting old. The newest ones are 41 years old! Of course mileage comes into play. I am not taking into account your rubber bushings have sagged to the point your torsion bars are grinding against the a arm (very common). Let's go with an optimum, best case scenario: no grinding and 130k miles and 41 years old. Do they loose there ability to work through there range of motion as intended? Sag?
