When To Get 1991 Dodge W150 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1991 Dodge W150, 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 W150 jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1991 Dodge W150 in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your W150 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Dodge W150 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1991 Dodge W150’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1991 Dodge W150’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Dodge W150 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your W150’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1991 Dodge W150 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Dodge'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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Dodge W150? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Dodge intended.
  • Does my Dodge W150 power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your W150 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Dodge's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Dodge W150 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Dodge W150 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.
  • Why does my W150 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your W150 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Dodge W150 need replacing? Worn W150 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your W150 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your W150 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
