Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between shocks and struts?
Shocks absorb bumps for ride comfort. Struts combine shock absorption with structural support for the suspension. Many vehicles use struts on front and shocks on rear.
How long do shocks and struts last?
Shocks typically last 50,000-100,000 miles. Struts last 50,000-80,000 miles. Rough roads and aggressive driving reduce lifespan.
What are signs I need new shocks or struts?
Signs include bouncing after bumps, rough ride, nose diving when braking, or uneven tire wear. Have suspension inspected if you notice these.
How much does shock or strut replacement cost?
Shock replacement costs $300-$600 per axle. Strut replacement costs $400-$800 per axle. We provide free suspension inspections.
