Does Your 1989 Land Rover Range Rover Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1989 Land Rover Range Rover, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Range Rover 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 1989 Land Rover Range Rover in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Land Rover Range Rover 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.

Land Rover Range Rover Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1989 Land Rover Range Rover’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 1989 Land Rover Range Rover’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Land Rover Range Rover shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1989 Land Rover Range Rover’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1989 Range Rover Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Land Rover's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Land Rover Range Rover? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Land Rover Range Rover power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Range Rover is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Land Rover service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Land Rover Range Rover bouncing excessively? 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 Range Rover 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Land Rover Range Rover shocks? If your Range Rover 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 Range Rover might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
