Symptoms
Signs your suspension is worn
Clunks over bumps
A knock or clunk from one corner of the car usually points to a worn link, bushing or joint.
Pulling to one side
The car drifts, or you have to hold the wheel to keep it straight on a flat road.
Uneven tire wear
Tires worn on one edge or in patches often point to a worn suspension part.
Loose or wandering steering
The steering has play at the wheel, or the car wanders in its lane.
Bouncy or nose-diving ride
The car keeps bouncing after a bump, or the front dives hard when you brake.
The process
How the job goes
Inspect on the lift
We check struts, springs, arms, joints, bushings and links for wear and play.
Show you the wear
We show you the worn part so you can see why it needs replacing.
Replace the parts
We replace what is worn, such as struts, control arms, ball joints or sway-bar links.
Check and road test
We recheck everything and drive the car to confirm the noise and the pulling are gone.
In detail
What we repair
Replacing the front struts on a Jeep Cherokee is a typical job here.
Loose steering on a Jeep, for example, was traced to the Pitman arm at the steering box.
Tie rods, control arms, ball joints, bushings and sway-bar links all wear out at their own pace.
Springs and shocks sag or leak over time, and a careful look shows which ones are done.
We replace parts in the pairs or sets that make sense, so the car handles evenly.

Questions
Common questions
How do I know which part is worn?
We inspect each unit and point out the play, the leak or the cracked rubber.
You see it before you decide.
Can bad suspension affect my tires?
Yes. Worn parts let the wheel move out of position, and the tire wears unevenly.
Fixing the cause protects your next set of tires.
Do you fix steering parts too?
Yes. Tie rods and steering linkage are part of the work.
Loose steering gets traced to the exact worn joint or arm.
