*Regular Inspections: Check your suspension components like shocks, struts, springs, and bushings frequently for wear, cracks, or leaks. Early detection helps avoid bigger repairs.
*Keep It Clean and Lubricated: Dirt and grime can wear parts faster. Clean suspension parts occasionally and lubricate joints and bushings as recommended.
*Avoid Rough Driving: Aggressive driving, including sudden braking, fast cornering, and hitting potholes or curbs, puts extra stress on suspension parts, shortening their life.
*Maintain Proper Wheel Alignment: Misaligned wheels cause uneven stress on suspension parts and tires. Get your alignment checked regularly, especially after hitting bumps or potholes.
*Check Tire Pressure and Condition: Properly inflated and balanced tires reduce strain on your suspension and improve ride quality.
*Replace in Pairs: When replacing shocks or springs, replace both sides to keep the system balanced and working smoothly.
*Timely Repairs: Don’t ignore warning signs like unusual noises, uneven tire wear, or excessive bouncing; fix worn parts promptly to prevent further damage.
