Steering and Suspension
read moreThese vehicle springs are the main connection from your vehicle's body, to the tires below, meaning they absorb all the road shocks. Generally speaking coil springs and leaf springs never need replacing, and should last the life of the vehicle. When performing a vehicle lift or lower, these springs are the cheapest and easiest way to alter a vehicle's height. The rods are the pivoting connection between the vehicle's steering box, and the wheels. The "tie rod ends" are smaller version of the ball joint, and also wear out over time.
Routine Maintenance
read moreOil changes performed at regular intervals will help to keep your engine in top driving condition. Typically, oil changes should be done every three to five thousand miles, but "severe" driving, hight dust or high heat may require more frequent oil changes. An average oil change consists of draining the old oil, and replacing it with oil specifically formulated for your vehicle, as well as a new oil filter. Air filters are designed to clean the air, needed by your engine, to run properly. When these filters become dirty or clogged, the air flow is restricted.
Cooling System
read moreThe coolant system is an extremely important part of a long engine life. The antifreeze circulates, bringing the cooler water from the radiator throughout the hot motor, thus cooling it down. Old antifreeze causes the system to work less efficiently, creating high temperatures within your engine. The thermostat is the temperature regulator for your engine. Activated by heat, once it reaches the operating temperature, the thermostat opens and allows the cooler water to circulate, therefore maintaining the proper temperature.
Brakes
read moreDisc brakes are the main stopping force of your vehicle. That being said, they are a very important part in safe driving. Brake pads are hydraulically clamped to the rotor, causing your car to slow or stop. If you hear a squeal or grind when you hit the brakes, this generally means that your brake pads are worn, pads wear out over time and will need to be replaced. The replacement mileage depends on your personal driving habits.
