Chevy CK Pickup Shock & Strut Mounts

When the wheel of your Chevy CK Pickup hits a bump, a portion of the kinetic energy of a moving object transforms into the shock wave directed upwards. The major aim of the entire suspension assembly is to dissipate that wave while reducing the unfavorable forces that affect mechanisms of the vehicle and its passengers/cargo. However, since the suspension assembly is unable and, actually, isn’t expected to provide 100% shock reduction, there are still enormous stresses that the strut transmits to the frame via its mounts. That’s the reason why they have to be strong and unimpaired.

The most common damages compromising the load-carrying capacity of the strut mounts are corrosion and plastic deformation due to overload. While rust can be the result of poor corrosion protection quality or scratched coating, the overload is a usual outcome of too enthusiastic off-road driving. In both cases, faulty parts need to be replaced, since their strength no longer meets the requirements, so the failure is only a matter of time. For your truck, we can offer a wide range of Chevy CK Pickup shock & strut mounts & hardware products, which you can find right here.
