Suspension System Auto Parts
Bomber Gals Garage: Buy Suspension System Auto Parts
Your car or trucks "ride and handling" are controlled by your suspension system. Fast but safe acceleration, braking, and cornering are important qualities in any vehicle. But conquering Indianapolis's potholes and gravel while holding the road and cornering takes a toll on your shocks or struts. When it's time to replace your shocks or struts give us a call at 463-287-0828.

A shock and a strut do the same basic job on a vehicle, damping the movement of the spring to create the feeling of an even ride. However, shocks and struts are completely different parts. Call us at 463-287-0828 or come by at 1823 Dawson St to find out if your car or truck needs shocks or struts. In most cases, a car or truck will have either a shock or a strut for each wheel but never both. There are a few vehicle types that have struts on the front axle and shocks on the rear.
What's the difference in a Shock vs a Strut?
Struts
A strut is a built-in part of the vehicle's suspension system whereas a shock is an added component. A strut is an integral part of the steering system. The camber and caster angles are specific to the strut itself. Your struts are the pivot point for the car or trucks steering system and require correct alignment when replaced.
Shocks
Your shock absorber controls unwanted "bumps" by dampening their impact on the suspension's springs and pistons through the use of hydraulic fluid. The spring sits on top of or around your shock absorber.
Your shock absorber is essentially just a double-walled tube filled with hydraulic fluid. When your car hits a "bump" your suspension springs transfer the energy of the bump to the shock absorber. The shock absorber moves a small amount of fluid from the inner tube to the outer tube, slowing down the piston to minimize a "bump".

I don’t ever leave reviews for company’s it’s not something I usually think about doing. I will say, I’ve known them for a couple of months due to me bringing my car in, not only did they fix an issue another company caused but the owner made me feel so welcomed into the shop, showed me what he was doing and why he was doing it the way he was while fixing the repair. I’d say as a woman it can be a bit intimidating, I will only ever bring my vehicles here. I fully trust that they will take care of me as if I were one of their own! If you ever need to take your vehicle here I would highly suggest bomber gals! Thank you guys for all you did for me!!!

Trust the reviews-- Neal is an amazing person. I've had good luck with mechanics in this city, and rely on trusted garages to recommend others-- but I found myself in a desperate emergency, and I had to trust my gut. Neal truly saved me. He knows his stuff, he works very hard, and not only does he care about what he does-- it's very clear that he cares about people. He will go above and beyond for you. I can't overstate my respect and admiration for him, as a mechanic and a human being. Thank you, Neal.
