Is It Time For 1983 Isuzu Impulse Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1983 Isuzu Impulse, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Impulse bounces, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1983 Isuzu Impulse in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 your Impulse 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 Isuzu Impulse

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1983 Isuzu Impulse suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Impulse’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Isuzu Impulse shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1983 Isuzu Impulse’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 1983 Isuzu Impulse Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Impulse's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Isuzu Impulse? 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 the tires connect with the road how Isuzu intended.
  • When should I have my Isuzu Impulse power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Isuzu's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Isuzu Impulse bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Isuzu Impulse 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 Impulse front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Impulse'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 Isuzu Impulse shocks? Worn Impulse 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.
