Is It Time For 1991 Ford Mustang Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1991 Ford Mustang, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Mustang jolts, 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 1991 Ford Mustang in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Mustang suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mustang steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Mustang Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1991 Ford Mustang’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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1991 Ford Mustang shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Ford Mustang shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1991 Ford Mustang suspension 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 Mustang Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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 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 Mustang 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. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Ford Mustang 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 Mustang is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Ford Mustang bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Mustang to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Mustang's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Mustang'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 Mustang are bad? Worn Mustang shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Mustang might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Mustang shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
