I drive on construction sites or rough terrain: Suspension and steering components wear faster. Haynes provides illustrated guides for replacing shocks, control arms, bushings, and related parts.

I accumulate high highway mileage: Transmission servicing and proper oil intervals become essential. Follow Haynes’ practical maintenance steps for smooth shifting and long-term efficiency.
