Restore Ride Stability With OEM Suspension Parts

The mechanical harmony between your vehicle's chassis and the road is maintained by a complex system of damping and support components. For owners of the rugged Toyota 4Runner, maintaining your suspension is vital for preserving that legendary off-road capability. Worn shocks or leaking struts don't just result in a bumpy ride; they significantly increase your braking distances and reduce tire contact during emergency maneuvers.

Easy Steps to Inspect Your Toyota's Suspension

1. Perform the Bounce Test

Push down hard on each corner of the vehicle; if it bounces more than twice, your damping components require replacement.

2. Visual Leak Check

Look at the body of the shock absorber; any visible oil film or wetness indicates that the internal seal has failed.

3. Inspect Tire Wear

"Cupped" or wavy tire wear is a definitive sign that the suspension is allowing the tire to bounce excessively on the road.

4. Listen for Clunks

A loud clunk when driving over bumps usually indicates a failed strut mount or a worn-out control arm bushing.

5. Check Ride Height

Measure from the ground to the fender on both sides; a difference of more than half an inch indicates a sagging spring.
