Stock suspension Life Span?

I am, sadly not really an offroader, but soon will be within the next year. I will be relocating up "north" (from where I am) where there are some trails, ect. My question is how long with the stock shocks and suspension last, because I am, what you call street rough on my Jeep. Slowing down on speed bumps are for chumps and curbs fuel my passion.
Thanks

As a daily driver, most of your factory suspension components will last you what would seem like a lifetime if you keep your Jeep stock and stick to pavement. Things like shocks, ball joints and tie rod ends will need to be replaced as a part of routine maintenance but, depending on where you live and how rough or smooth your roads are, I wouldn't doubt you could get 60,000-120,000 miles out of them... maybe more.
