Does Your 1984 Jeep Wagoneer Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1984 Jeep Wagoneer, 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 Wagoneer bounces, pulls 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 1984 Jeep Wagoneer, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Wagoneer suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Jeep Wagoneer 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.

Jeep Wagoneer Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1984 Jeep Wagoneer suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1984 Jeep Wagoneer’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Jeep Wagoneer shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Wagoneer’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1984 Wagoneer 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 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 should my Jeep Wagoneer get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 should I have my Jeep Wagoneer power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Wagoneer’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Jeep service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Jeep Wagoneer to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Jeep Wagoneer 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Wagoneer to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Wagoneer 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Jeep Wagoneer are bad? Worn Wagoneer 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.
