The importance of regular truck suspension maintenance

  • If inspectors find any signs of damage/wear on the suspension, it is a seven-point CSA violation.
  • Worn out torque rods can impact a driver’s ability to control the vehicle when accelerating & braking and in corners.
  • Damaged or loose torque rods can make the ride very uncomfortable for drivers’ backs.
  • Deteriorated bushings may allow the trailers to sway, causing tires to rub against the suspension frame hangers.
