Collection: Shock Absorbers

Shock absorbers for your car are an essential part of your suspension system, like powerflex bushes, they keep your tyres on the road offering your vehicle the smoothest drive possible absorbing all bumps and knocks on the road.

If you start to experience odd noises, vibrations or late braking, this could indicate worn shock absorbers which can be very dangerous. This is why we recommend you buy replacement shock absorbers from us asap. Another part that may have an issue if these symptoms occur is your car's brake system. brake calipers or brake pads may also be at fault so check out our brake components we sell.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What are shock absorbers?

Shock absorbers are car parts in the vehicle's suspension system. They absorb and damp shock impulses by converting the kinetic energy of the shock into another form of energy (typically heat) which is then dissipated.

2. How do shock absorbers work?

Shock absorbers work by using hydraulic fluid and valves to take in the shocks and vibrations from the road. When your car hits a bump, the absorber compresses and pushes fluid through valves, absorbing the energy from the impact.

3. How long do shock absorbers last?

The lifespan of shocks can vary greatly depending on the vehicle, driving conditions, and the quality of the shock absorbers. On average, they should last between 50,000 to 100,000 miles if you drive on ok roads. However, it's always a good idea to have them checked during regular vehicle maintenance.

4. When should I replace my shock absorbers?

You should see a garage and replace your absorbers as soon as you notice an issue. You can diagnose a problem by looking out for, poor handling when steering, uneven tyre wear, or leaking fluid. These could be signs that your shock absorbers are worn out and not performing optimally.
