Suspension & Shock Services In Atascadero

Worn suspension components affect your vehicle's handling, braking, and tire life. If your ride quality has deteriorated, a suspension inspection can identify the problem before it leads to costly repairs.

Comprehensive Suspension Inspection

Before recommending any repairs, we perform a thorough inspection of your entire suspension system. We check shocks, struts, springs, control arms, ball joints, bushings, and steering components to identify worn or damaged parts affecting your ride quality and handling.

Shock Absorber Replacement

Worn shocks allow excessive bouncing and reduce your ability to control the vehicle. We replace worn shock absorbers with quality OEM or aftermarket components matched to your vehicle and driving needs, restoring a smooth, controlled ride.

Control Arm and Bushing Replacement
