"Did You Know You Should Replace Your Shocks Every 50,000 Miles?..."


Safety experts recommend most shocks need to be replaced between 40,000 - 50,000 miles. But, depending on what kind of driving you do, they can wear out sooner. Bumpy roads or over-enthusiastic driving in your GMC G-1500 Series can accelerate how fast this happens.

You want to be safe when your out on the road and you want to be comfortable too, so it's really important to inspect your shock absorbers once a year or every 12,000 miles. Worn shocks are not only uncomfortable, but can also be dangerous.


"Shocks Really Are The Heart of Your Suspension..."





Believe it or not, the shock absorbers are a vital component of your suspensions system. The most noticeable advantage of a shock absorber is that they work hand in hand with the springs to "absorb" many of the road bumps and in return you get a smoother ride. Without properly working shocks your G-1500 Series would be bouncing around on the springs.

You want control while driving your G-1500 Series, so, functioning shocks are not just something you want, you need them for your GMC G-1500 Series.

When you're driving, your tires only make contact with the road on a pretty small part of tire. If you're shocks aren't working correctly, then the tires on your G-1500 Series are really just bouncing all over the place. That means your tires spend more time in the air than on the road.


"Bouncing While Driving?..."


If your G-1500 Series is bouncing down the road while you're trying to drive, then chances are you've got worn shocks.





Another important feature of shock absorbers is that they make steering and braking work properly. If the shocks on your G-1500 Series are worn, then your brakes and steering aren't working correctly. That's pretty dangerous.

Another sign that you're shocks are ready for retirement, is cupped wear on your tires. If your shocks need replaced, they can wear out tires in cupped strips because your tires are spending most of the time in the air and not on the road.




Tires bouncing all over the road with a G-1500 Series on top of them is not a good game plan if you want the best road handling and a safe, comfortable ride or if you'd like to keep your tires for a while longer!


"How Come My G-1500 Series Shocks Wore Out?..."


Shock absorbers have valves and seals inside of them, and over time and depending on the the roads you drive and how you the drive, your shocks take it all. They just take a beating with all the bouncing, and sooner or later, just stop working.




"I Need New Shocks!..."


Strutmasters is pleased to offer you the Monroe Sensa-Trac Load Adjusted Shocks for your G-1500 Series. The Monroe Sensa-Trac load adjusting shock absorber with PSD (position sensitive damping) and the Safe Tech system combines exclusive precision tapered grooves in the pressure tube with application engineered valving and Fluon banded piston.

Whew. So, what does that do? Well, it will improve your G-1500 Series ride, handling, and safety! Not bad for a start.
