Look for oil on the shock itself...not the ground
Theyre not that big...they cant leak forever - one good bump would empty it almost completely.

You can remove the shock and compress it - if it pushes back its good.
You can look for collected dirt/debris on the shock as well as brownish oil.
You/friend watch while you/friend drives and see if the wheels bounce off the road.
