We are vehicle performance specialists here at Excelerate Performance, and we can give your automobile’s suspension a boost. Whether you want your car lowered or a more comfortable ride, look no further than our shop for suspension modifications designed to improve your vehicle’s handling. We are going to talk about common suspension problems below and high-performance upgrades to fix them. You can count on us to treat your suspension with the utmost care.
Broken Suspension Spring
A broken suspension spring will make your vehicle sit lower on one wheel. This is not exactly the effect you are going for when you want a lowered automobile. The broken spring will also make loud clunking noises when you drive over bumps. We can replace the broken suspension spring and the rest of your suspension springs with lowering springs or coilovers to lower your automobile and give you a more comfortable and controllable ride.
Diving or Squatting
If your automobile dives or squats, this momentum motion is an indication that the struts and shocks are worn out. We can replace your struts and shocks with high-quality parts designed to give you complete control over your automobile. Whether lowered or at a normal height, your high-performance automobile will no longer dive when you stop, squat when you accelerate, or tilt to the side.
Oily Shock Absorbers
Another sign that your shocks are shot is if they are oily. As the shocks age, they begin to lose their internal fluid. If you reach up behind your rear wheels and touch the shocks, they shouldn’t feel greasy. If they do, you need to replace them. If your shocks need to be replaced, chances are your struts are also in the same boat. Again, we can replace these parts with high-quality parts that will boost your vehicle’s handling and are perfect for driving at higher speeds.
Uncomfortable Ride
Finally, a combination of new high-performance stress and shocks as well as lowering springs or coilovers can increase the comfort of your vehicle’s ride. If it is uncomfortable to drive your automobile because it feels every bump in the road, you need to do something to upgrade your suspension to help buffer the uneven pavement. We can do that here at our shop and give your automobile an awesome look by lowering it at the same time.
