What it does

Shocks and struts are normally replaced in pairs on the same axle. Worn suspension and steering parts show up as clunks, wandering, uneven tire wear and a vague feel; fresh parts restore control, and performance parts sharpen it.

Installation & tips

  • Replace shocks in pairs on the same axle, and get an alignment after strut work.
  • Strut mounts: Often worn at the same time.
  • Alignment: Needed after strut replacement.
  • This part affects how the vehicle stops, steers or holds the road. If you are not sure how to fit it, have it installed or checked by a qualified mechanic.
