Does Your 1984 Jeep Scrambler Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1984 Jeep Scrambler, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Scrambler bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1984 Jeep Scrambler in for steering and suspension repairs. 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Jeep Scrambler’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Jeep Scrambler Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1984 Jeep Scrambler suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 1984 Jeep Scrambler shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Jeep Scrambler shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Scrambler’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1984 Scrambler Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jeep's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Jeep Scrambler 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Jeep intended.
  • When does Jeep Scrambler power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Scrambler’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Jeep's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Jeep Scrambler to have a bouncy ride? 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 Scrambler's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Scrambler combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What do worn Jeep Scrambler shocks feel like? Worn Scrambler shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Scrambler might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Scrambler shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
