| What is the difference between shock absorbers and struts? |
| Struts and shocks are very similar in function, but very different in design. The job of both is to control excessive spring motion; however, struts are also a structural component of the suspension as they can take the place of two or three conventional suspension components. |
| How long do shocks and struts last? |
| It is recommended that they should be inspected by your local KYB Safety Center once a year, or every 12,000 miles. The factors that affect the life of a shock or strut are weather conditions, amount and type of road contaminates, driving habits, loading of the vehicle, tire / wheel modifications, and the general mechanical condition of the suspension and tires. |
| When do I need to replace worn shocks or struts? |
| If you notice that the vehicle exhibits excessive bounce, sway, or dive during braking or unusual noise originating from the suspension system this could warrant an inspection and replacement. If the shock or strut has lost a large amount of fluid, if it is bent or broken, or if it has damaged brackets or worn bushings, it should be repaired or replaced. Generally, replacement of parts will be required if a part no longer performs the intended purpose, if the part does not meet a design specification or if a part is missing. |
| Why do I need to replace worn shocks or struts? |
| If worn, shocks or struts could jeopardize your ability to stop, steer and maintain stability. They also work to maintain tire contact with the road and reduce the rate at which vehicle weight transfers among the wheels when negotiating corners or during braking. |
| Can worn shocks or struts cause my new tires to wear unevenly? |
There are many factors which affect tire wear. The five main items are:
- Driving habits
- Alignment settings
- Tire pressure settings
- Worn suspension or steering components
- Worn shocks or struts
