    Good job man now it makes me easy to tackle my work but my question is why is it that they connect the break hose to that shock stands because it makes it difficult anyway bravo 👍✌️

      Shock struts are identical for both normal and sport suspension, only the spring is different

    I don't know about cars but when my mom wanted to change her front tires coz the left tyre and rim were big and it was rubbing on the inner fender(searched it right now😅) thing and shock thing/arm thing you changed the smaller tyre stopped spinning and they changed it multiple times and it didn't work but when we put back the bigger one I think it's a 19 inch rim it works the others don't, what might be the problem I don't know and the tyres keep going flat what might be the problem ???

    I'm using your video for a mounting comparison of some Bilstein B4 (or Sach too) shock absorbers which got the black plate in the air about a fifth inch away from the base, Also, the top nut was on the face of the shock shaft . Can these two situations be normal?

    Hi i am from india and love watching your videos❤️
    I have some doubts and need an expert advise.
    My car details:
    Suzuki Swift VDI 2017 MODEL TYPE 2 1.3 L diesel
    Kms driven : i have driven 90000kms
    Replacements related to shock absorbers: only a bush in front side at 40 k kms in showroom
    Issue : my car is gradually increasing the body roll and suspension becomes more bumpy and hard. when given for mechanics and in service center they told me that suspension are not worn out but efficiency may be less.
    In efficiency test results in service center: it was fine and they told me taht if its greater than 15 % your suspension is having problems.
    Tyres used : (upsized ) yokohoma 205 /55/r15 and pressure used in 32 psi in all wheels.
    What May be the reson for this side by side body roll ? In irregular roads . Its worsening day by day and travel with my car is now a headache and i am having backpain.
    I checked all suspension for leaks and not found
    Do i need to replace suspension to get it back to previous condition like brand new? Or do i need ro sell this car?
    I can ahare you pictures of car suspension etc if you need . Can u please help me.
    Your mail id? / WhatsApp?

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for contacting us.
      Unfortunately, without a proper diagnosis of the suspension, it is difficult to say something.
      First of all, check the condition of the springs with shock absorbers.
      If you remove everything in order, go to the stabilizer rods and look at the hinge joints for play. The problem most likely lurks in this.
