When you first drove your 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your K1500 Suburban bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.
We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your K1500 Suburban suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Chevrolet K1500 Suburban suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.
Your 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Chevrolet K1500 Suburban shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Suburban suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.
