When To Get 1990 Ford LTD Crown Victoria Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1990 Ford LTD Crown Victoria, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your LTD Crown Victoria bounces, drifts 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 1990 Ford LTD Crown Victoria 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford LTD Crown Victoria’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 LTD Crown Victoria

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1990 Ford LTD Crown Victoria 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your LTD Crown Victoria’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Ford LTD Crown Victoria shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1990 Ford LTD Crown Victoria suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

1990 LTD Crown Victoria Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Ford's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Ford LTD Crown Victoria get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 LTD Crown Victoria power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your LTD Crown Victoria is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Ford LTD Crown Victoria bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your LTD Crown Victoria 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 LTD Crown Victoria tilt forward when I hit the brakes? 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 LTD Crown Victoria shocks? Worn LTD Crown Victoria 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.
