Complete suspension and steering system solutions – top-level driving control
Parts that change the way you drive – precise steering and a smooth ride without compromise
Have you ever wondered what makes driving so smooth and comfortable? It's thanks to the suspension and steering , which are the true heroes of every car. Their role isn't limited to providing comfort—they also ensure your safety on the road. That's why it's so important to choose genuine used car parts. highest quality: from solid rockers to reliable power steering pumps . While the names may sound complicated, their function is crucial to vehicle stability. Let's delve into the fascinating world of suspension and steering systems !
The importance of suspension and steering
The suspension and steering system are the pillars that determine the ride quality of any vehicle. The basic suspension element is the wishbone . They are responsible for damping vibrations and vehicle movements while driving. High-quality wishbones ensure comfort and safety, minimizing the risk of losing control of the vehicle. Another important component is the power steering pump . These pumps facilitate maneuvering the car even at low speeds, which is especially important in city traffic jams or when parking. A reliable power steering pump reduces the effort required to turn the wheels, translating into greater driving comfort. Switches They play a key role in the suspension and steering system, connecting the wheels to the rest of the vehicle's control mechanisms. Their task is to ensure the proper wheel alignment relative to the road surface, which affects steering precision and tire wear. We cannot forget about the steering gear either. - the heart of the front wheel steering system. This transmission transfers rotational motion from the steering wheel directly to the wheels, enabling precise vehicle maneuvering even at high speeds. It's also worth considering the available coilover suspension kits. They allow you to adjust the vehicle's height to suit your individual preferences or the terrain you most frequently drive on. When deciding to purchase used car parts in the suspension and steering category for your BMW , Mini , Mercedes , Audi , Volkswagen, or other model, you should carefully consider the individual steering and suspension components. Investing in genuine used car parts can bring long-term financial benefits through increased durability and improved performance of the entire driving system. In models like the Audi A3 8P and BMW E87, the rear suspension is particularly important for driving stability and comfort. The Audi A3 8P's rear suspension features a multi-link design, which ensures excellent vibration damping and grip in corners. Meanwhile, the BMW E87's rear suspension utilizes a multi-link design with aluminum wishbones, ensuring light weight and precise handling. Carefully selected parts—such as bushings, shock absorbers, and control arms—directly impact comfort and safety. Suspension components should be replaced in pairs to maintain symmetry and even component wear. Suspension can be defined as the set of components connecting the wheels to the body, whose primary function is to dampen vibrations and maintain tire contact with the road. Typical automotive suspension systems utilize independent (e.g., McPherson) or multi-link suspension. For example, the rear suspension of the Audi A3 8P features a five-link design, while the rear suspension of the BMW E87 uses a four-link system. These differences influence the handling characteristics – the Audi provides greater ride comfort, while the BMW offers sportier, more precise steering responses. Below is a comparison of key rear suspension parameters for selected models:
| Vehicle model | Rear suspension type | Number of wishbones | Height adjustment | Driving characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Audi A3 8P | Multi-link | 5 | Optional (coilover suspension) | Comfortable and stable |
| BMW E87 | Multi-link | 4 | NO | Dynamic and precise |

Suspension and steering components:
- Control arms and ball joints – They are responsible for the stability and smoothness of the suspension movement, ensuring driving comfort.
- Leaf springs and springs – Suspension load-bearing elements that absorb shocks and improve vehicle stability.
- Power steering pumps – Crucial for precise control, they ensure light and smooth steering.
- Steering gears and housings – Mechanisms that transmit the steering wheel movement to the wheels, affecting steering precision.
- Shock absorbers and shin guards – Elements that dampen vibrations and stabilize the vehicle when driving on uneven surfaces.
- Stabilizers, clamps and bushings – Components that reduce body roll and improve vehicle stability.
- Tie rods and ends – They transfer the steering wheel movement to the steering knuckles, affecting the steering accuracy.
- Bearings, wheel hubs and bushings – They are responsible for the smooth operation of the wheels and minimizing friction in the running gear.
- Suspension replacement kits – Kits containing all the necessary elements for comprehensive suspension regeneration.
- Automatic level control – Systems that maintain the appropriate suspension height depending on the vehicle load.
- Steering columns – They combine the steering system with the steering mechanism, ensuring ergonomics and safety.
- Power steering hoses – Hoses responsible for transporting hydraulic fluid in the power steering system.
- Power steering pump parts – Components ensuring the efficiency of the power steering system.
- Shock absorber and leg mounts – Mounting elements, stabilizing shock absorbers and suspension struts.
- Bearing and chassis bushings – They reduce vibrations and dampen noise generated by the suspension.
- Switches – They connect the wheels to the steering and suspension systems, allowing them to turn in the appropriate direction.
- Steering stabilizers – Elements that improve steering precision, reduce vibrations and improve track stability. It's also worth remembering that suspension component compatibility depends on the engine version, drive type (FWD or AWD), and year. For example, the rear suspension in the Audi A3 8P quattro version differs structurally from the front-wheel drive version. In the BMW E87, the differences mainly concern spring rates and shock absorber characteristics depending on the engine version (1.6, 2.0, 3.0). By matching components to the VIN, you can easily select the right components, avoiding installation or wheel alignment issues.
Variety of car parts on the market
At the Global Parts automotive store you can find a wide range of car parts Each component has its own specific functions and characteristics that impact the vehicle's overall performance. Suspension and steering are key systems that require special attention when selecting the right components. Control arms are one of the most important suspension components.

When searching for the perfect car parts, it is worth focusing not only on price but also on product quality; original used car parts often guarantee better durability and efficiency of the entire driving system for a longer period of time without the need for frequent replacement or repair of individual components, with a very good price-to-quality ratio.
How to choose the right components for your car
Choosing the right parts for your vehicle can be a complicated task. The decision to purchase car parts should be carefully considered. It's crucial to determine which components are most important for maintaining driving comfort and safety. Start by analyzing the condition of your current parts. Have you noticed any handling issues? This could indicate worn components like the control arms. or power steering pumps Modern control arms provide better vibration damping, resulting in a smooth ride even on uneven surfaces. When choosing control arms or other suspension parts, pay attention to the manufacturer. Genuine used car parts are high-quality products that can ensure long-term reliability. Reviews from other users can also be helpful in making a decision. Another important aspect is the selection of the appropriate crossover and the steering rack . These components directly impact vehicle handling precision and should be selected according to the specifics of your vehicle model. The steering knuckle must maintain the correct wheel angle relative to the road; therefore, it's worth investing in original solutions.
