Suspension

Suspension Springs, Arms, Coils, Shock Absorbers

Often overlooked, your vehicle’s suspension has a massive impact on the ride quality and handling. Most suspension systems work on a spring format.

As you drive over bumps in the road, the springs compress and depress to dampen the feeling in the vehicle. As time goes by the springs can fatigue and the handling will suffer and this can often be dangerous.

Suspension Parts

Suspension is the term given to the system of springs, shock absorbers and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels. Suspension systems serve a dual purpose — contributing to the car’s roadholding/handling and braking for good active safety and driving pleasure, and keeping vehicle occupants comfortable and reasonably well isolated from road noise, bumps, and vibrations, etc.
