You will also find ball joints, steering knuckles, coil springs, leaf springs, sway bar links and bushings, control arm bushings, pitman arms and trailing arms. Air suspension parts include air springs, air compressors and coil spring conversion kits. There are also shock and strut mounts, strut bellows, suspension kits and body lowering kits. Brands include Monroe, Dorman, Moog, AC Delco and TRQ.
Signs of worn suspension
Excess bouncing after a bump, nose dive when braking and fluid leaking from a shock or strut are signs it is worn out. Clunks over bumps often come from sway bar links, bushings or ball joints. A vehicle that sits low on one corner may have a broken coil spring or a leaking air spring. If an air suspension compressor runs constantly or the vehicle sags overnight, look for a leak in the springs or lines. Cupped or uneven tire wear can also point to worn suspension parts.
Choosing parts and working safely
Replace shocks and struts in pairs on the same axle so the vehicle handles evenly. Trim and drive type change suspension parts, so check the fitment table for two or four wheel drive, heavy duty packages and air or coil suspension. Chevrolet has the most coverage, especially the Camaro, Silverado 1500, Tahoe and Impala.
Compressed coil springs store a lot of energy. Use a proper spring compressor or choose a complete strut assembly. Support the vehicle on jack stands, and get an alignment afterward.
Suspension questions
Should I replace shocks and struts in pairs?
Yes. Replace both on the same axle at the same time. A new shock on one side and a worn one on the other will make the vehicle lean, bounce unevenly and handle poorly. Many owners replace all four when the vehicle has high mileage.
What is a coil spring conversion kit?
It replaces a vehicle's air suspension with conventional coil springs and shocks or struts. Owners often choose one when air springs or compressors keep failing. Some kits include a module or resistor to stop the suspension warning light, so read the package contents.
Do I need an alignment after replacing control arms?
In most cases, yes. Control arms locate the wheel, and a new arm or bushing can change camber and toe. Get an alignment after replacing control arms, ball joints, tie rods or struts to protect your tires and keep the vehicle tracking straight.
