Question:  If after coming to an abrupt stop in your car, it bobs up and down, do you need new springs?  True or False?

Answer:  False..  What you’re more likely to need is new shock absorbers.  You’re probably aware that shocks are designed to keep a car’s wheels on the ground, even over rough terrain.  But they’re also used to stop the rocking chair motion that naturally follows a sudden stop.  So if your car doesn’t ride – or stop – as smoothly as it used to, check  those shocks!
