Do you touch car shock absorbers when changing car springs?

Oct 24, 2009 by jaffacake | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

I recently got new front springs put in my car and now im having problems going over bumps (banging noise) I took it back to the garage and they said i need new shock absorbers. I never had any problems like this before i changed the springs. Could it

Depends on the make and model of you car?Most cars have struts,which is the shocker is in the centre, and the road spring is fitted onto it.May not have been reassembled properly?Look for any leaks as shockers have oil in them?A second opinion would also
