Product Description ACDelco GM Original Equipment Suspension Struts are GM-recommended replacements for your vehicle's original components. Suspension struts are similar to standard shock absorbers, but have the added function of maintaining part of the suspension design.

These original equipment suspension struts have been manufactured to fit your GM vehicle, providing the same performance, durability, and service life you expect from General Motors. &#9888;<b> WARNING:</b> Cancer and Reproductive Harm - www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 3 - Header Uneven patches of wear on the edges of your tire can be a sign of weak ride control (shocks or struts).

Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 1 - Bullet 1 Vehicle has 'acceleration squat'
Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting - Section 1 - Bullet 3 Vehicle steering pulls
FAQ - Answer 1 Yes. Although shocks and struts perform a similar function, they vary greatly in their design. The major difference between shocks and struts is that a strut is a structural part of the vehicles suspension system where a shock is not. A strut is also a crucial part of the vehicles steering system and greatly affects alignment angles.
FAQ - Answer 3 Yes. It is important to choose the correct shock or strut for your vehicle model and year, as well as for the location in the vehicle.
FAQ - Answer 2 Yes. You should have your vehicle aligned if you are replacing your vehicle's struts. However, it is not necessary to get your vehicle aligned when replacing your vehicle's shocks unless there was a previous issue.
