Why Should I Replace My Shocks/Struts?

Shocks and struts are a critical component of your vehicle’s suspension. When your suspension compresses or expands during normal driving conditions, shocks and struts help to dampen this movement for a smooth and comfortable ride. Once excessively worn, dampers no longer function correctly, resulting in poor ride quality. 

It’s also essential to match your struts with your vehicle’s lift. For example, stock-length shock absorbers and dampers are best suited for stock-height applications, whereas taller lifts typically require longer shocks. 

Consider replacing your shocks and struts to restore like-new ride quality. We offer drop-in replacements for all ride heights, including complete strut assemblies for quick, bolt-on installations.

How Do I Know When My Shocks/Struts Need Replacing?

Poor Ride Quality

When a shock or strut fails, your vehicle’s ride will be noticeably impaired. Symptoms such as excessive bouncing, instability at speeds, and squatting during acceleration and braking are all signs of worn dampers.

Leaking Fluid

Have you noticed an oily coating on the shock body? This leakage is a direct symptom of a failed shock/strut resulting from torn or damaged seals, allowing shock oil to seep around the piston.

Irregular Chassis Noises

Are you experiencing irregular noises from your vehicle’s wheel wells, especially when traversing bumps? Worn shocks often exhibit banging, clanking, or rattling noises with failed components.
