Steering & suspension

Suspension absorbs bumps and keeps tyres planted; steering links transfer your inputs to the road. Worn shocks, bushes, or ball joints affect safety and tyre wear.

Partners replace shock absorbers, inspect steering racks and link ends, and recommend wheel alignment after major suspension work.

Knocks over bumps, wandering on the highway, or uneven tyre wear warrant an inspection.

5 signs of suspension wear

Pay attention to:

1. Bouncy ride after bumps

Worn shocks or struts no longer control body movement.

2. Clunks over uneven roads

Worn sway bar links, control arm bushes, or strut mounts are common sources.

3. Uneven or scalloped tyre wear

Alignment or balance issues, or failed shocks, wear tyres unevenly.

4. Steering wander

Loose tie rods, worn bushes, or low tyre pressure can cause vague steering.

5. Leaking struts

Oil on the shock body means the damper has failed and should be replaced in pairs where recommended.

How suspension jobs are done

Inspect and replace

The vehicle is raised; components are checked for play, leaks, and perished rubber. Shocks/struts, bushes, and ball joints are replaced as required. Alignment is performed after adjusting ride height or replacing key arms.

Shock absorber lifespan

Varies by use

High mileage, rough roads, and towing accelerate wear. Many manufacturers do not list a strict interval — replace when performance drops or leaks appear.
