31126769802 BMW STRUT

Struts really do a lot. They primarily support the weight of your vehicle, absorb impacts from bumps and potholes, and keep your tires in contact with the road. They also play a big role in steering and handling, keeping everything stable when you turn or go over uneven surfaces. Basically, they control the up and down motion of your suspension. Think of struts as a major component of your suspension system. They connect the wheel assembly to the vehicle chassis. They aren’t just about comfort, though they definitely improve the ride. They're crucial for maintaining control. A strut assembly typically includes a coil spring and a damping unit—the damper is what actually controls the spring’s movement. It prevents the vehicle from bouncing excessively. Well, if your struts are worn out, you’ll notice if you hit a bump. It’ll feel like the car is floating or bouncing more than usual. That’s because the strut isn’t controlling the spring anymore. It also affects handling. You might feel like the car sways more in turns, or doesn’t feel as stable. Worn struts can also cause your tires to wear unevenly, and even affect your alignment. A good strut acts like a shield against road imperfections, and keeps everything working as it should. You can find a pretty good selection of struts, including the one you’re looking at, over at Fixparts Online if you want to take a look. But hopefully, now you have a better understanding of what they do and why they’re important. Professional-grade support: Strut (MPN 31126769802) comes with a 12-month warranty!
