Ride Smooth, Steer Straight, Stop the Noises
Suspension and steering parts wear gradually—until you notice clunks over bumps, uneven tire wear, shaking at speed, or the wheel pulling off-center. We diagnose and repair the cause on site with clear, flat-rate pricing and quality parts (or we’ll install your verified parts).
Common Symptoms We Fix
- Clunking/creaking on turns or bumps
- Wandering steering or loose feel
- Vibration, wheel shimmy, or humming (bearing)
- Nose-diving while braking; excessive bounce
- Uneven or rapid tire wear; off-center steering wheel
What We Service
- Struts & shocks (front/rear)
- Ball joints & control arms (with bushings)
- Outer/inner tie rods & rack boots
- Sway bar links & bushings
- Wheel bearings & hubs
- CV axles & axle seals
Alignment: After steering/suspension work (tie rods, control arms, struts), a wheel alignment is recommended. We don’t align on-site, but we’ll refer a nearby shop.

Pricing & Flat-Rate Visit
Diagnostic Visit — $49.99 (Virginia Beach)
Includes on-site inspection, road test (when safe), and a repair plan. Fee is waived if your repair total is $300+.
Good to know: Prices are for labor/diagnostics only; parts not included. A disposal/old parts fee from $10 and a $15 mobile supply fee may apply. Virginia Beach service only.
Safety First
Worn suspension or steering can increase stopping distance, reduce tire contact, and cause unpredictable handling—especially in rain. If you hear a metal-on-metal grind, feel a wobble, or see a loose ball joint/outer tie rod boot torn, stop driving and book an inspection.
Suspension & Steering FAQ
Do I need struts or just sway links?
Sway links cause sharp clunks over small bumps; worn struts cause bounce, nose-dive, and tire cupping. We test each component so you only replace what’s needed.
My wheel hums with speed—bearing?
Likely. A hub bearing often grows louder when you load that side in a turn. We confirm with play checks and road test, then quote a hub replacement if needed.
Will new parts fix my uneven tire wear?
Replacing worn parts stops the cause; a post-repair alignment and correct tire pressure finish the job to protect new tires.
