Can I Replace Just One Car Shock Absorber?
1 Answers
It is not advisable to replace just one shock absorber; it's best to replace them in pairs on the same axle. If only one is replaced, the lifespan of the other will be shortened, and it may fail soon. More information about the car shock absorber system is as follows: 1. The shock absorber system consists of two parts: the shock absorber and the spring. Shock absorbers typically need to be replaced after about 100,000 kilometers. Even if the shock absorber is not broken or leaking oil, its damping effectiveness will be significantly reduced. 2. As long as the car is moving, the shock absorber is constantly working. Unlike other car parts, shock absorbers can last for a long time.
