Shocks & Struts

Your vehicle's shocks and struts are responsible for providing a smooth ride and for keeping your tires in contact with the road. Over time, they can become worn and damaged, which can affect your vehicle's comfort, handling and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shock absorbers can last anywhere from 50,000-100,000km, or between 5 and 10 years, depending on the make and model of your vehicle, your driving habits and, above all, the type and condition of roads upon which you travel. It is important to have your shocks and struts inspected regularly by a mechanic to ensure that they are working properly.

No, struts are not the same as shock absorbers. Struts are a type of suspension system that combines the shock absorber and the spring into one unit. Shock absorbers are a separate component that work with the springs to provide a smooth ride.

To remove rust from your shock absorbers, you can use a wire brush and a rust remover solution. Be sure to follow the instructions carefully and wear gloves and eye protection when working with rust remover, especially when using with a brush that can flick things every which way.
