Is It Time For 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, 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 problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon shock and strut replacement 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 indicators of worn Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact 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-350 Econoline Club Wagon? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon 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-350 Econoline Club Wagon 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-350 Econoline Club Wagon 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-350 Econoline Club Wagon tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your E-350 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 do I know if I have worn Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon shocks? Worn E-350 Econoline Club Wagon shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
