Does Your 1992 Dodge W250 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1992 Dodge W250, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your W250 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1992 Dodge W250 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 absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If parts of your Dodge W250 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Dodge W250

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1992 Dodge W250 suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 1992 Dodge W250 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Dodge W250 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1992 Dodge W250 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1992 W250 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my W250's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Dodge W250? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Dodge intended.
  • Does my Dodge W250 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your W250’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Dodge's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Dodge W250 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your W250 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.
  • Why does my W250 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your W250'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 do I know if I have worn Dodge W250 shocks? Worn W250 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your W250 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your W250 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
