Even though they are both relatively easy to understand, it is still worthwhile looking at how exactly both the suspension and shock absorbers in a car work.

Shock absorbers are an essential part of the entire suspension system of a vehicle and without them you would have a horrible ride and also encounter a greater number of mechanical issues.

If we break them down to the absolute basic explanation, then they are hydraulic devices that work to both control and alleviate the impact caused by the movement of both the springs and suspension of the vehicle.

When it comes to your car, then you will have undoubtedly heard of the suspension, but there will be a number of people that are unaware as to what it really is or what it is capable of doing. However, it is perhaps easier to understand than you think.
