A truck's suspension is the system of springs, shock absorbers, and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels. The primary function of the suspension is to provide a smooth ride and maintain tire contact with the road. It also plays a crucial role in handling and braking, as well as in the overall safety of the vehicle.
One of the most common issues we see at Diesel Integrated Solutions is worn-out bushings and shocks. These components can wear out over time, resulting in a rough ride and poor handling. Worn bushings can also lead to excess play in steering and suspension components, which can cause uneven tire wear and a reduction in braking efficiency.
Another common problem is air suspension leaks. Heavy-duty diesel trucks often have air suspension systems, which use air bags instead of traditional springs. These systems are susceptible to leaks, which can result in a sagging or uneven ride. This can also result in a lack of air pressure available in the system to properly engage the suspension, leading to safety risks for both you and the drivers around you.
At Diesel Integrated Solutions, we offer a variety of suspension repair and maintenance services for heavy-duty diesel trucks, including
