Austin Front shock absorber replacement
Why Are Austin Front Shock Absorbers Replaced?
The front shock absorbers on your Austin provide the quality of the ride, as well as keeping your wheels and tyres in contact with the road.
When they are worn out, the ride quality of your Austin will be compromised and driving on rough roads may be enough to rattle your teeth out!
Worn out or failed shock absorbers also cause increased and uneven tyre wear, so it’s best to have them replaced as soon as they show signs of wear or leaking.
Front Shock Absorber replacement can cost between $250 - $700 and up, depending on the type of shock absorbers and if other components need to be removed to allow access.
Shock absorbers are continually working hard as you drive, eventually, seals wear out and they fail to absorb the impact and heat, as well as they use to. A shock absorbers life expectancy depends on the type of shock absorber and the conditions it is put under.
For your safety in keeping all wheels firmly on the ground, it is recommended to replace Austin shock absorbers when they show signs of failing.
