A quality suspension systems made up of well engineered parts ensure a quiet, comfortable ride for driver and passenger alike in any vehicle. Control arms, shock absorbers, coil springs, and leaf springs - these are all are necessary not only for comfort, but to protect the entire vehicle, as bumps and violent shocks can cause premature wear on virtually the whole mechanism. The Saturn SL Strut holds virtually everything else together.

It is a component of the suspension, holding the wheels and axles in position to the rest of the vehicle. Typically, the Saturn SL Strut is used with a MacPherson strut assembly, consisting of a shock absorber mounted inside a coil spring.

A MacPherson strut combines suspension mounting for the front wheel with a steering pivot. A modified version of these are also used for the rear axles. Struts provide lateral ("side-to-side") stability to a vehicle as well as structural support to the entire suspension assembly. This eliminates the need for upper control arms in front. Struts that are old and worn will cause steering problems, creating a safety. Therefore, any strut should be replaced at least once in 100,000 miles.
