Shocks & Struts
If your car's suspension bounces easily, it might be time for new shocks or struts, especially if you're driving on rough roads that accelerate wear by challenging your dampers to smooth out bumps and undulations. Don't settle for worn-out shocks and struts that can't handle poor road conditions due to lost fluid viscosity. Upgrade during our sale to get top-quality struts and shocks at great prices, ensuring your vehicle maintains a smooth and comfortable ride.

Control Arms & Bushings

Control arms, essential for maintaining wheel positioning, consist of a metal arm and bushings that absorb road forces, enhancing comfort. These bushings deteriorate over time, reducing effectiveness and leading to misalignment, which can cause tire wear and increase accident risks. To ensure safety and cost-efficiency, replace control arms as recommended or when signs of wear appear.

Sway Bars & End Links
Anti-sway bars, connecting both sides of a car, balance softness and stiffness in suspension by increasing spring pressure during load and relaxing in straight lines for everyday comfort. Refreshing your suspension with new endlinks and sway bar bushings can reduce clunks and improve cornering response. For enhanced grip and sharper handling, consider upgrading to a larger bar.

Suspension Kits

Not really sure what you need? Don’t worry; we’ve got it covered. Along with the hundreds of thousands of individual parts, we’ve curated suspension refresh kits to relieve the stress of ordering parts. With just a single click to add it to your cart, you’ll be set with all the bolts, washers, arms, and links for a given area. Parts making up the kits range from genuine replacements to aftermarket, race-ready adjustables that we know and trust. No matter what you’re looking to do, one of our kits is sure to make the repair process just a little bit easier.

Tie Rods
Tie rods link the steering rack to the wheels, featuring ball joints for mobility. They wear out over time, leading to vague steering and a disconnected feel, which can be dangerous. Regularly checking tie rod condition is crucial for safe driving. For replacements, consider upgraded options like Meyle's HD line, which offers enhanced strength and durability compared to original equipment.

Steering Racks
The steering rack is the central component that translates steering wheel rotation into actual directional change. Depending on the type, power assistance is provided by an electric motor or a hydraulic system. Although the latter hardly ever break mechanically, they’re always prone to leaky seals. Once they start to leak, replacement is your best bet. Electric racks are typically more reliable, but failures within the electrical system are still possible. Luckily for you, we carry the best OE replacements from Bosch and other manufacturers.

Power Steering Pumps
The power steering pump is essential for easing steering by providing fluid pressure to the rack. With regular o-ring maintenance, pumps can last long but eventually may need replacement, especially if leaks, noise, or wobbling occur due to worn bearings. These issues can cause overheating and lead to pump failure.

Power Steering Fluids
Power steering fluid, whether ATF or mineral oil, will always wear out. Constantly being heated and pressurized to bear the forces of the steering system takes a toll on its lubricating and viscous properties. Once worn, the reduced effectiveness of the fluid can put extra strain on surrounding components. A solid interval for a system flush and refill is around every 50,000 to 75,000 miles.
