We'll never recommend work you don't need. If your suspension is fine, we'll tell you - even if it costs us the job.
Every suspension job starts with a proper look underneath - shocks, springs, bushes, ball joints and tie rods.
Three generations of mechanics since 1957. We're not a chain - you'll work with people who genuinely care.

Full inspection on the hoist - shocks, springs, bushes, ball joints, tie rods, control arms and sway bar links. You get an honest report on what's needed now versus what can wait.
Recommended if handling has changed, or after 80,000km

Yes - any suspension work that touches the steering or lower control arm geometry should be followed by a wheel alignment. We'll let you know at the time of quote so you can book both together.

"Very thorough and fair, Howard has picked things up that would have cost a lot more later if missed! Great service and he explains everything. We moved interstate and the new mechanic commented on how well the car had been looked after. 10/10"
