When To Get 1991 Ford E-350 Econoline Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1991 Ford E-350 Econoline, 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-350 Econoline bounces, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1991 Ford E-350 Econoline in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford E-350 Econoline’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford E-350 Econoline

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1991 Ford E-350 Econoline’s suspension. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Ford up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1991 Ford E-350 Econoline shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Ford E-350 Econoline shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1991 Ford E-350 Econoline’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1991 E-350 Econoline Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Why should my Ford E-350 Econoline get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • When should I have my Ford E-350 Econoline 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 can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Ford E-350 Econoline to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your E-350 Econoline goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my E-350 Econoline'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-350 Econoline'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Ford E-350 Econoline need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your E-350 Econoline feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your E-350 Econoline travels over minor bumps.
