Truck Suspension Repair
Like any other part of the truck, suspension can wear out or break down eventually. Commercial vehicles travel thousands of miles and sometimes the road isn’t really friendly to the vehicle. That’s why you should regularly maintain truck suspension or, in case of breaking down, repair or replace it.

Suspension Systems
Keeping your suspension system in good shape is an important part of having a well-maintained vehicle. Your truck’s suspension is what allows you to control the vehicle, have a smoother ride over bumpy roads, and take corners without rolling over. It is located in the chassis underneath your truck, where it supports the frame and absorbs shock from the tires.
Signs of Trouble
There are some common signs that will let you know if your suspension system is starting to fail. If your rig is pulling hard to the left or right, it’s time to let 1st Truck and Trailer Repair take a look and get it repaired. Pulling is one of the most common signs of suspension problems.
If your ride is suddenly much bumpier than usual, you could have a shock-absorber issue. If your suspension system isn’t absorbing shock as it should, you will feel every bump and hole in the road as you drive over them.
Difficulty steering your vehicle is another sign to watch for. If it’s taking more effort than usual to rotate your steering wheel, especially at low speeds, you could have a faulty spring, a worn power steering belt, or worn control arm bushings. Our experienced team can fix any of the above problems and any other issues affecting your suspension system.
