Shocks and Struts
Shock and struts are integral suspension parts that help you navigate rough terrain, bumps, and other challenging surfaces. Without shocks and struts, your car wouldn't be able to absorb impact – and your journeys would be much less smooth!While you might not realize it, shocks and struts are not used in conjunction. Most cars will have shocks OR struts, so it's essential to understand which part is affixed to your suspension system.
