Signs that you need to upgrade your factory shocks to a Bilstein set

If your suspension feels "bouncy" or "loose," it's likely due to blown or worn shock absorbers. Shock absorbers are essential for dampening the recoil of the coil springs as you travel over dips and bumps in the road, ensuring a smooth ride.

Symptoms of Failing Suspension Shock Absorbers

  • Noise from the front end over bumps
  • Squeaking sounds
  • Fluid leaks
  • Poor handling
  • Harsh ride quality
