Does your car have any of these symptoms:

Not absorbing road bumps & shocks
Wheels bouncing excessively
Stopping distance increasing
Nose diving on braking
Steering wheel vibration

Car veers in strong winds
Rocks and rolls over bumps
Not hugging the bends
Uneven tyre wear

Although all shock absorbers do the same job, different types of vehicles and suspension designs require different types of shock absorbers which can appear radically different.

Having brakes that function properly is something that every driver considers a priority. What you may not be aware of is the critical function that shock absorbers and suspension generally plays in vehicle control and braking efficiency. So, poor suspension means poor brakes.

Control Arms, Steering Rack, Spring & Shock Absorber Repairs.

This trio is what you rely on to stop when you apply the brakes. On the surface you may think that suspension wear and tear will only impact on your ride and comfort but the real danger is when the suspension loses its ability to keep your tyres in constant contact with the road and particularly on wet roads, you then become an accident waiting to happen because traction is lost therefore brakes are lost.

This picture shows a typical front suspension with ball joints, brake disc and hub.

Get in tune with these suspension early warning signs.
