OEM Shocks & Struts
Can You Replace Struts Without Replacing Shocks in a Car?
Yes, struts can be replaced without shocks, depending on the car's suspension system. When using strut-based suspension, the spring and shock absorber need to be replaced at the same time. Certain cars feature front and rear shock absorbers independently, making replacement possible. In shock-based suspension systems, shocks can be replaced independently of the struts. If both shocks and struts are used, only replace the worn component. Pairing or combining both can improve handling and ride quality.
