When To Get 1987 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1987 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon feels bouncy, pulls 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 1987 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1987 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 getting your 1987 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1987 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1987 E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon's steering and 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 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 should I have my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon are bad? If your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
