Re: OT - Struts
The topic was about tire wear, NOT shocks or struts.
I explained how shocks or struts can cause tire wear.
The differences in shocks and struts is very clear to me, and you postings
are without relevance. But thatnks for playing, Captain BesidethePoint.

Re: OT - Struts
Jeff, the topic is "Struts" as in the subject line. To paraphrase, he
asked whether he should believe the advice that they are "shot". Like
you he doesn't know what a strut is! I took the liberty of pasting in
the original post that you seem incapable or finding:
"From: "Ben" <bmccunenospam@knology.net> Wed 3:32 PM
Subject: OT - Struts
I was getting the oil changed in my Saturn at this tire shop and I was
told
by the Tech that the struts where shot and they were shredding the
tires.. I
have never heard of that before... Can someone help me on that one? I
know
it isn't a Jeep question, but I thought that the shredding tire thing
was
interesting...

Re: OT - Struts
When the struts fail, the affect is identical to the failure of a shock. The
resulting tire wear looks a certain way, and it looks the same way - for all
practical purposes - regardless of whether the car is fitted with shocks or
struts.
You are talking about the tires falling off the car, I am talking about the
tires bouncing. Bouncing happens with shocks or struts. Falling off never
happens.
The question was, (paraphrasing here) "Why are my tires worn out and the
struts are to blame?" I answered that question, and included the reference
to shocks because for some strange reason some people grasp the job of a
shock but fail to grasp the idea that a strut does the same thing. The strut
also is a major suspension component, but the quality of a strut that
affects tire wear is the quality that it shares with a shock, and the
suspension component HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS.
Thanks again, Captain Beside the Point.

Thank you. This is the part I believed you did realize, and keep
