Suspension repair in Ludowici, GARides rough?We find why.

Clunks, wander, bouncing and uneven tire wear traced to the worn part, then fixed.

The work

Tire wear tells the suspension story.

A tire tech sees it first: a tire worn on one edge, cupped, or bald in patches.

Often the tire is the symptom. A worn part in the suspension is the cause.

We check shocks, struts, springs, ball joints, tie rods, bushings and steering parts.

Then we show you what’s worn and what can wait.
