Is It Time For 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your E-250 Econoline jolts, leans 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 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 E-250 Econoline steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Ford E-250 Econoline Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1991 Ford E-250 Econoline suspension system. 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 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 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Ford E-250 Econoline shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your E-250 Econoline’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.

1991 E-250 Econoline Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford E-250 Econoline? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • Does my Ford E-250 Econoline power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your E-250 Econoline’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Ford E-250 Econoline to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your E-250 Econoline to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my E-250 Econoline front end dip forward when I brake? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Ford E-250 Econoline shocks? Worn E-250 Econoline shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your E-250 Econoline might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your E-250 Econoline shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
