Steering & Suspension
Shocks, struts, ball joints, tie rods and power steering. Repairs that help restore a smooth, controlled ride.
Your steering and suspension keep your tires in contact with the road and give you control over bumps, turns and stops. Worn parts can affect handling, braking and tire wear.
We inspect the complete system and recommend repairs based on what we find, not a checklist.

What will it cost?
Pricing depends on your vehicle and what we find. We’ll inspect, explain the options and give you an estimate before any work begins. No work is done without your approval.
What happens during your visit
Road test
We drive the vehicle to feel how it rides, steers and stops.
Inspect
On the lift, we check for play, leaks and worn components.
Explain
We show you what we found and prioritize safety-related repairs.
Repair & align
We complete the approved repairs and check the alignment.
Do I need an alignment after suspension work?
Often, yes. Replacing parts like struts, tie rods or control arms can change the alignment angles. We’ll let you know if it’s recommended.
How do I know if my shocks or struts are worn?
Common signs include a bouncy ride, nose-diving when braking, leaning in turns and fluid leaking from the shock or strut body. We can inspect them for you.
Do you do custom lifting and lowering?
Our service center lists custom lifting and lowering among its services. Call us to talk about your vehicle and what you have in mind.
