Suspension wear happens gradually — most drivers adapt to the changes without noticing until handling is significantly compromised. A vehicle with worn shocks, tired control arm bushings, or a bad tie rod doesn't just ride poorly. It stops poorly, corners unpredictably, and accelerates tire wear. We inspect and repair the complete suspension system.
Worn shocks don't just affect ride quality — they increase stopping distance and reduce tire contact on uneven surfaces. We test and replace shocks and struts with quality units matched to your vehicle and driving needs, from daily-driver comfort to performance setups.
Control arm bushings wear out before the arms themselves. Worn bushings cause vague steering, clunking over bumps, and rapid tire wear. We replace bushings individually or the full arm — whichever is the right call for your vehicle and mileage.
Ball joint and tie rod failure can cause sudden loss of steering control. We test both ends of the steering and suspension system for play and replace anything that does not pass inspection before it becomes a safety issue.
Any suspension work that changes geometry requires an alignment. We perform four-wheel alignments and set specs appropriate for your use — street, performance, or track. An alignment on worn suspension components is money wasted — we fix the wear first.
Sway bar end links and bushings are commonly neglected but cause a noticeable clunk and reduce cornering stability when worn. We inspect and replace both as part of any suspension service.
Every job at C&D follows the same process — diagnose, quote, repair, verify. See how it works →
Suspension repairs range from $150 for end links to $800–$1,500 for struts or control arms. We give a firm written estimate before starting.
