Does Your 1996 Isuzu Trooper Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1996 Isuzu Trooper, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Trooper jolts, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1996 Isuzu Trooper, bring it 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 Isuzu Trooper’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Isuzu Trooper

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1996 Isuzu Trooper’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1996 Isuzu Trooper shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Isuzu Trooper shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1996 Isuzu Trooper suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

1996 Trooper Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Isuzu's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Isuzu Trooper? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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.
  • When does Isuzu Trooper power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Trooper is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Isuzu's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Isuzu Trooper 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 Trooper to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Trooper's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Trooper'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Isuzu Trooper need replacing? If your Trooper 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 Trooper might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
