When To Get 1992 Ford E-150 Econoline Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1992 Ford E-150 Econoline, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your E-150 Econoline feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1992 Ford E-150 Econoline 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford E-150 Econoline’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 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1992 Ford E-150 Econoline’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your E-150 Econoline’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Ford E-150 Econoline shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1992 Ford E-150 Econoline suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1992 Ford E-150 Econoline Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 Ford intended.
  • Does my Ford E-150 Econoline 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 E-150 Econoline is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Ford E-150 Econoline bounce so much? 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's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your E-150 Econoline 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 do worn Ford E-150 Econoline shocks feel like? If your E-150 Econoline 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 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
