If you look under the wheelarch,above the front wheel,if you can see a strut surrounded by a spring,then you have both.(the damper is inside the strut)(ive put it this way so you can see for yourself.)NOW tyre wear,if your shockers have gone the wear pattern will be flat across the tyre tread/no tread/tread/no tread,and you will feel like you have square wheels.
to check shockers, push hard down on one corner,the car should bounce up,then down,then settle at its original height.no more.
OK! guru that sounds like a good place to start to look. I also was curious what I how much I should expect to pay for an alignment and shocks/struts. It's has 4X4 capibilities and I've heard that adds to the price some. The wear on the tires is just to the inside of the tires, about 2 to 3 inches across. thank you for your time and input:)
tyre wear on the inside is down to misalignment,this is a simple job,takes about 1/2 hour and
when you check your tyre pressures is something to look at so that you dont get so much wear.(costs money)even if your car has 4wd capabilities it will cost no more.
i would love to give you a price BUT i live in England and here it would cost about $25 for alignment alone.
