Does Your 1985 Chevrolet G30 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1985 Chevrolet G30, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your G30 jolts, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1985 Chevrolet G30 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your G30 suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your G30 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Chevrolet G30

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1985 Chevrolet G30’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Chevrolet up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1985 Chevrolet G30’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Chevrolet G30 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1985 Chevrolet G30’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1985 Chevrolet G30 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chevrolet's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Chevrolet G30? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Chevrolet G30 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your G30 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Chevrolet's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Chevrolet G30 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Chevrolet G30 might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my G30 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your G30's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Chevrolet G30 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your G30 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your G30 travels over minor bumps.
