Ford Fiesta Shocks & Struts

The suspension belongs to the most important automotive systems, influencing many vital features including road holding, cornering, safety, and ride quality. Indeed, many suspensions are the masterpieces of engineering where the wheels, springs, arms, shocks, and struts are in charge of absorbing impacts and irregularities coming from the road surface. The right adjustment of the system is as important as the quality of its components, and depending on the setup, the suspension meets specific requirements oriented either toward racing or smoother cushioning action for daily trips.

When coil or leaf springs stretch or compress to react to the road stresses, shocks and struts absorb the kinetic energy produced by the springs. Playing the same role, shocks and struts feature a different design: unlike shocks, struts carry out a structural function and have a bracket on the lower end of the strut. As a rule, the strut assembly consists of the strut-type shock absorber that serves as support for the coil spring.
