How do I know if it is my suspension or my alignment?
A rough or bouncy ride, clunking over bumps, and visible fluid leaks on a shock or strut usually point to suspension. Uneven tire wear with a smooth ride and a wheel that pulls to one side often point to alignment. A proper inspection tells the difference before you pay for the wrong fix.
