Suspension Repair in Detroit
If your car bounces, clunks, or the steering feels loose, the suspension is talking to you. We diagnose it right and fix only what's actually worn.
What we service
Struts and shocks. Control arms and bushings. Ball joints. Tie rod ends. Sway bar links and bushings. Steering rack. Power steering pump and hoses. Wheel bearings.
Detroit's roads put suspensions through it. We see potholed-out strut towers, snapped sway bar links, and torn bushings every week. We'll tell you what's actually causing the issue and what you can hold off on.
Diagnosis first
Every suspension visit starts with a lift and a shake-down. We grab each component and check for play. We drive it if we need to. You get a rundown of what's worn and what isn't before we recommend a single part.
Watch for these
Signs of suspension trouble.

- Clunking or knocking over bumps
- Vehicle leans or dips hard in turns

Before you call.
Do I need to replace struts in pairs?+
Yes, always in pairs on the same axle. Replacing one causes uneven handling.
How long do struts and shocks last?+
Typically 50,000 to 100,000 miles. Detroit roads shorten that.
Do I need an alignment after suspension work?+
Usually yes. Anything that changes the geometry of the suspension needs alignment after.
