When To Get 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Ram 2500 Van bounces, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van, bring it in for steering and suspension services. 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 absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Dodge Ram 2500 Van 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.

Dodge Ram 2500 Van Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van’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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Dodge Ram 2500 Van shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2000 Ram 2500 Van Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Dodge's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Dodge Ram 2500 Van? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Dodge intended.
  • When does Dodge Ram 2500 Van power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Ram 2500 Van’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Dodge service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Dodge Ram 2500 Van bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Ram 2500 Van goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Ram 2500 Van to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Ram 2500 Van when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Dodge Ram 2500 Van shocks? Worn Ram 2500 Van shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Ram 2500 Van might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Ram 2500 Van shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
