Does Your 1985 Isuzu Impulse Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1985 Isuzu Impulse, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Impulse jolts, pulls 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 1985 Isuzu Impulse, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. 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 parts of your Isuzu Impulse suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Isuzu Impulse Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1985 Isuzu Impulse suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1985 Isuzu Impulse shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Isuzu Impulse shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1985 Isuzu Impulse’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1985 Isuzu Impulse Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Isuzu's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Isuzu Impulse? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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.
  • When does Isuzu Impulse power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Impulse’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Isuzu's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Isuzu Impulse bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Impulse's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Impulse when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Isuzu Impulse shocks? Worn Impulse shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Impulse might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Impulse shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
