Is It Time For 1989 Ford Bronco Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1989 Ford Bronco, 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 Bronco jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1989 Ford Bronco in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Bronco 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 Ford Bronco 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 Ford Bronco

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1989 Ford Bronco’s suspension. 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 Ford up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1989 Ford Bronco’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Ford Bronco shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1989 Ford Bronco’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1989 Bronco Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford Bronco? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Ford Bronco 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 Bronco’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Ford Bronco bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Bronco to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Bronco front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Bronco 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Ford Bronco are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Bronco feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Bronco travels over minor bumps.
