Is It Time For 1995 GMC C2500 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1995 GMC C2500, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your C2500 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1995 GMC C2500, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub 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 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 C2500 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your GMC C2500

Your 1995 GMC C2500’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your GMC up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1995 GMC C2500 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn GMC C2500 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1995 GMC C2500 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1995 C2500 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my GMC'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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my GMC C2500? 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 connect with the road how GMC intended.
  • Does my GMC C2500 power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your C2500 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per GMC's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my GMC C2500 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your GMC C2500 might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my C2500 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your C2500'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 do I know if I have worn GMC C2500 shocks? If your C2500 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your C2500 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
