Oops...

OK,
Lets say someone needed to change thier shocks and struts. They go out, buy them, and put them in the back of the car untill they have time some to install them. Before this time comes, it rains, a lot, and the back of the car now has a pair of shocks and struts submerged in about 5 inches of water that has come from a previosly unknown (but now fixed) leak in the rear hatch. Would it be ok if I...I mean they, still used them?
Thanks,
C.J.

shocks and struts get wet with every rainy road and pot hole. Wipe them off and install them.
