Shock and Strut Replacement
Suspension & Steering — Cheyenne, WY
Shocks and struts wear so gradually you stop noticing — until the truck floats after a dip, nose-dives under braking, or the back end skips sideways on washboard. Worn dampers don't just ride poorly; they increase stopping distance and let tires cup and wear out early.
TDC replaces shocks and struts with quality units matched to the vehicle's actual job: standard replacements for the commuter, heavier-duty dampers for trucks that tow, haul, or run gravel roads daily. Strut jobs are done with proper spring tools and the alignment implications handled.
What's Included

Diagnosing Steering & Suspension
- Road test
Wander, pull, clunk or shimmy — the complaint gets verified on the road first, sometimes with you riding along.
- Lift inspection
Every joint, bushing, spring and shock gets checked for play and wear with the suspension unloaded.
- Confirm the failed parts
Loose is measurable. You get told exactly which components failed and which are fine.
- Repair and re-test
Quality parts, proper torque, alignment accounted for, and a final drive to confirm it's right.
