Long Beach Suspension Systems




By Groshan Fabiola

Long Beach shock absorbers play an integral role in your car's Long Beach suspension system. You need to replace the Long Beach shock absorbers when evident signs of wear become apparent, otherwise your safety and comfort in your car could become compromised.

Long Beach shock absorbers work by easing the compression and extension of the car's Long Beach suspension springs to prevent ongoing bouncing. Long Beach shocks work to absorb road impact, prevent excessive rebound, limit sway and improve overall road handling. When your Long Beach shocks are working properly, your car holds on to the road whether you are braking, negotiating a bend in the road, driving on bumpy roads or experiencing strong side winds. If worn out, your Long Beach shocks can cause you to lose control of your car and put you, your passengers and riders in other cars in danger.

The most well know name in Long Beach shock absorbers is Monroe. Monroe invented the first shock absorber in 1916 when cars were still riding on carriage springs, and the company has been innovating ever since.

Manufacturers suggest that you replace your Long Beach shock absorbers every 50,000 miles. However, you might have to replace them earlier if you regularly drive on rough roads. One way to determine whether your Long Beach shocks need replacing is to do the following:

1. Grab a hold of the corner of your car's bumper.
2. Push down on it as hard as you can.
3. Observe: the bumper should drop down, jump back up and go down again once. If it continually moves, then that Long Beach shock is no longer effective. Repeat the test on the remaining three corners of your car.

Other signs that you need new Long Beach shocks are if wear can be observed through leakage and by observing tire wear patterns. If you experience motion sickness every time you go for a ride, that can be the best indicator that your Long Beach shocks or struts need replacing.
