When To Get 1984 Chevrolet K10 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1984 Chevrolet K10, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your K10 jolts, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1984 Chevrolet K10, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your K10 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Chevrolet K10 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Chevrolet K10 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1984 Chevrolet K10 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 1984 Chevrolet K10’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Chevrolet K10 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your K10’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1984 Chevrolet K10 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chevrolet's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 K10? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Chevrolet intended.
  • When should I have my Chevrolet K10 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your K10 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Chevrolet service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Chevrolet K10 bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your K10 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my K10 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Chevrolet K10 shocks? Worn K10 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your K10 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your K10 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
