Is It Time For 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1994 Land Rover Defender 90, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Defender 90 feels bouncy, 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 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, 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 what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Defender 90 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Land Rover Defender 90 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1994 Land Rover Defender 90’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1994 Land Rover Defender 90’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Land Rover Defender 90 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1994 Land Rover Defender 90’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Defender 90's steering and 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 Land Rover Defender 90? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Land Rover intended.
  • Does my Land Rover Defender 90 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 Defender 90 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Land Rover service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Land Rover Defender 90 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Land Rover Defender 90 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 Defender 90 front end dip forward when I brake? 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Land Rover Defender 90 are bad? Worn Defender 90 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Defender 90 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Defender 90 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
