When To Get 1999 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1999 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon, 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 E-150 Econoline Club Wagon bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1999 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 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 suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1999 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Ford up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1999 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1999 E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • When should I have my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon 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 E-150 Econoline Club Wagon tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon are bad? Worn E-150 Econoline Club Wagon shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
