What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Ford's suspension?

Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for 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 E-250 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-250 Econoline Club Wagon power steering fluid checked?

Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.

Why is my Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon bouncing 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-250 Econoline Club Wagon's nose dive down when I hit the brakes?

The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your E-250 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-250 Econoline Club Wagon are bad?

Worn E-250 Econoline Club Wagon shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.

Does Your 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your E-250 Econoline Club Wagon bounces, 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 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your E-250 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.

Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon’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. But there's no set schedule for 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon shock and strut replacement 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 E-250 Econoline Club Wagon shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.
