Is It Time For 2006 Jeep Wrangler Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2006 Jeep Wrangler, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Wrangler jolts, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2006 Jeep Wrangler 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Wrangler 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 Jeep Wrangler

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2006 Jeep Wrangler’s suspension. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Jeep up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Wrangler’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Jeep Wrangler shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2006 Jeep Wrangler suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2006 Wrangler Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Wrangler's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need 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 Jeep Wrangler? 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 connect with the road how Jeep intended.
  • Does my Jeep Wrangler power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Wrangler’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Jeep's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Jeep Wrangler to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Jeep Wrangler 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 Wrangler tilt forward when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What do worn Jeep Wrangler shocks feel like? Worn Wrangler 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.
