STEERING & SUSPENSION SYSTEM REPAIRS, EDINBURG ... (956) 783-8991 Call us now !

The steering and suspension system on your vehicle is responsible for maintaining comfortable riding conditions and driving performance. The steering and suspension system also helps drivers remain in control of their vehicles at all times.

The suspension system converts forward energy created by bumps in the road into vertical energy that travels up into the vehicle frame. Suspension system components, like coil springs and shock absorbers, help to dampen the impact of this road force. While the individual components comprising each suspension system may vary, all suspension system components will weaken over time through stress applied during normal driving conditions.

Similarly, off-road driving and erratic driving can wear down suspension components more quickly. Regardless of your driving preferences, we have the necessary equipment to identify and correct any issue plaguing your steering and suspension system. Our staff is trained to inspect the steering and suspension components in order to determine whether your service will entail a minor adjustment or a replacement.

Here in this image to the left, we have our mechanic taking off leaf spring by removing u bolts on steering axle from a Kenworth. After removing leaf spring, we will remove and replace bushings and pins. After finishing on hydraulic press, we will install on truck and do an alignment on truck.

Shaky, unsteady, off-center, and stiff steerings are direct signs that you should get your steering system repaired, while excessive bouncing or swaying during bumps and intermittent control while driving and braking are cause for a suspension system inspection.

In this image to the right, We changed suspension bushing on both axles. Trailer tires were wearing down. Alignment saved you 1000's of dollars.

Uneven tire wear is also a potential sign of a suspension problem, though this may also point to alignment issues. Have you hit a pothole recently? Potholes can cause damage to steering and suspension components. Worn suspension components will reduce the stability of the vehicle and the control of the driver.

Because suspension system components combine into one working unit, suspension issues that go untreated have the potential to increase the wear on other suspension components, which may result in more extensive repairs down the road.
