Suspension

---

Your vehicle’s suspension is key because it essentially connects it to its wheels. Without a suspension that is in good working order, you will not have stability and you’ll have to endure a bumpy and uncomfortable ride. It is important to have your suspension routinely inspected, which Mastertek Automotive can do quickly and meticulously.  

Some of our services include, but are not limited to: 

- Ball joints are used in just about every automobile, and you need trained and meticulous technicians to assess the ball joints in your suspension to make sure that they are in tip-top shape. Ball joints are also used in tie rod ends.

- Shock absorbers, are an integral part of your suspension that need to be regularly inspected to ensure they are giving you and your passengers stability and a smooth and safe ride. Worn shocks can impact other important parts of your vehicle and can have safety implications.

- Struts might be passive braces reinforcing the chassis or active components of your suspension. A suspension strut combines the primary function of a shock absorber and the ability to add support to the chassis. Your struts may require service if you find your vehicle shaking or bouncing after hitting a bump in the road.

- Control arms are hinged suspension links between the chassis and the suspension.

- Bushings in your suspension are most commonly made of (synthetic) rubber and separate metal objects while still permitting a degree of movement. This allows the suspension parts to move freely when going over bumps, while also reducing grinding noise and small vibrations.
