Truck Suspension Repair Services in Derby

Suspension issues can lead to poor handling, uneven tire wear, and serious safety risks. At BM Commercial, we provide expert truck suspension repair services in Derby for HGVs, lorries, trailers, and commercial vans—helping you stay roadworthy and compliant with DVSA standards.

Why Suspension Repairs Matter

The suspension system supports the vehicle’s weight, absorbs shocks, and ensures proper alignment. Faulty suspension affects steering control, braking performance, and tyre life. Timely repairs reduce wear and tear, protect cargo, and ensure a smoother, safer ride.

Our Truck Suspension Repair Services Include:

  • Air suspension diagnostics and repair
    We service and replace faulty airbags, valves, compressors, and leveling systems to maintain proper ride height and load distribution.
  • Shock absorber replacement
    Worn shocks can cause excessive bounce and reduce road grip. We fit premium dampers to restore comfort and safety.
  • Leaf spring repair & replacement
    We repair broken or cracked springs and rebush mounts to support heavy loads and prevent sagging.
  • Suspension arm & bushing replacement
    Damaged arms or bushings affect alignment and tyre wear. We restore balance and stability for smooth handling.
  • Axle alignment and suspension calibration
    We perform digital axle and suspension alignment to reduce rolling resistance, improve handling, and extend tyre life.

Signs Your Truck Needs Suspension Repair
