The Job
Suspension Set Up for How You Actually Drive
A vehicle that pulls to one side, bounces excessively or feels vague through the steering usually points to a steering or suspension issue. At SJB Mechanical, we carry out suspension repairs in Cairns alongside steering work, plus 4WD suspension upgrades and lift kits for those who take their vehicle further afield. It's a natural extension of our passion for the Toyota Hilux and other 4WDs, and we set suspension up to suit how a vehicle is actually used, whether that's the daily commute or weekend touring.
Worn components are replaced with quality parts, and upgrades are matched to your vehicle and intended use rather than a one-size-fits-all kit. If a suspension issue turns out to be tied to a broader mechanical fault, our vehicle diagnostics service can help confirm it.
Call SJB Mechanical on 0447 162 060 to talk through your steering or suspension needs.
