Of course.

And the specific failure of the strut is the same failure that a shock might
experience. So, in this way the shock and the strut are the same, which is
all I said in the first place. I wasn't concerned with the idea that the
strut is a suspension component, I was only concerned with the idea that the
strut preforms shock absorber duties. Indeed, may struts these days have
cartridges that get replaced because the shock is what wears out, the
suspension components last forever unless the driver goes around using his
tires to look for curbs at high speed. I assume that people don't go around
using the tires to feel for curbs at high rates of speed, and the suspension
components are pretty straight. The shocks, on the other hand ...
