Shock Absorbers are meant to Die With Cars? How True!!! by akanniade10(m): 6:57pm On Apr 28, 2016
A friend abroad said shock absorbers isn't something we should be changing every 6months to 1year. Is it true that shock absorbers are meant to die with cars?

Can you compare the roads? All those ungodly gallops like the ones in my area tend to shorten the lifespan of your shocks. Compared to where they have smooth assed roads. How many times do the shocks really work?

Even at that, shocks are still being changed everywhere in the world, the frequency may be lesser than ours.

Hello Akanniade10,

Tell your friend he is very very wrong. Why do the car companies manufacture replacement shock absorbers?
