Our Suspension services include:
Air Spring
Air suspension is used in place of conventional steel springs in heavy vehicle applications such as buses and trucks. It is broadly used on semi-trailers. The purpose of air suspension is to provide a smooth, constant ride quality. Modern electronically controlled systems almost always feature self-leveling along with raising and lowering functions. Although traditionally called air bags or air bellows, the correct term is air spring (although these terms are also used to describe just the rubber bellows element with its end plates). Trust the experts at Zims Tire & Auto Service when your truck's air bag suspension needs service, repair, or replacement. Call us at 304-738-0439 to schedule an appointment.
Equalizers
Suspension equalizers are an effective aftermarket innovation for rear leaf suspensions. The equalizers are designed to aid in the carrying ability of your truck. Equalizers have the following advantages: fuel economy, increased safety, increased power, reduced tire wear, improved steering, and improved braking.
Most equalizer kits include U-bolts, Equalizer Bars, Shackle Plates, Greasable Bolts, Rollers, Spring Washers, Washers, U-bolt Plates, and Nylon Locking Nuts. For all your suspension equalizer needs, visit or call Zims Tire & Auto Service in Ridgeley, WV 26753 today.
Hangers
Hangers are an effective way to enhance your truck's driving stability, handling, and suspension response. Hangers lower your truck's center of gravity, protecting it from rollovers in turns and corners and help you modify your truck's ground clearance. Whether you want to lower or raise your truck using hangers, call 304-738-0439 or visit Zims Tire & Auto Service today.
Shocks
Shock absorbers are mechanical devices designed to smooth out shock impulses, thus reducing the effects of traveling over rough roads. Shocks convert kinetic energy that is formed when a vehicle travels over rough ground into another form of energy.
With shocks, you will be able to take your truck to places you never thought possible. Shocks work together with springs (they damp spring oscillations) to give your truck the best overall performance and the ability to carry the maximum load. For all your shock servicing, shock repairs and shock replacement needs, call or visit Zims Tire & Auto Service today.
Torque Arms & Walking Beams
A torque arm is a metal arm attached between a drive axle and the vehicle's frame. Torque arms prevent axle rotation in hub motors. It prevents the wheels from trying to rotate the axle relative to the vehicle's frame under acceleration (or in the opposite direction during braking).
A walking beam is an oscillating lever that pivots on a central axis and uses internal cam technology to transmit linear stroke in two directions (produces a reciprocating or reversible motion).
For all your torque arm and walking beam servicing needs, visit Zims Tire & Auto Service in Ridgeley, WV 26753.

I want everyone to know that Zim's Tire is the most honest and caring automotive repair business that a person could ever find.

I trust them with every vehicle I've owned from a Ford Ranger to a Mercedes Benz AMG. They take care of my vehicles like the vehicles are their own. I highly recommend Zim's and promise you that you will be glad you went there.

My wife and I called many places getting tire prices. I spoke with a very informative woman on the phone. She gave us the best deal in town. We were quoted an out the door price, once we got there she took our information. Once our car was done yep you guessed it. Its was exactly what we were quoted. Thanks, will do business with you guys again soon.
