What causes clunking noises over bumps?
Clunking or popping noises typically point to worn sway bar end links, deteriorated ball joints, or blown strut mount bearings.
What is the difference between a leveling kit and a lift kit?
A leveling kit raises only the front of the truck 1.5–2.5 inches to match the rear height. A full suspension lift raises both front and rear 3 to 6 inches for maximum ground clearance.
Do I need an alignment after installing a lift kit?
Yes. Changing suspension height significantly alters camber, caster, and toe angles. An alignment is mandatory after installation to prevent destroying tires.
How long do shocks and struts last?
Quality shocks and struts typically last between 50,000 and 80,000 miles before internal seals lose hydraulic damping capability.
