When To Get 1998 Land Rover Range Rover Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1998 Land Rover Range Rover, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Range Rover jolts, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1998 Land Rover Range Rover in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel 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 Land Rover Range Rover’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Land Rover Range Rover

Your 1998 Land Rover Range Rover’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 Land Rover up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Range Rover’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Land Rover Range Rover shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Range Rover’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1998 Land Rover Range Rover Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Land Rover's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Land Rover Range Rover? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Land Rover intended.
  • Does my Land Rover Range Rover 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 Range Rover’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Land Rover's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Land Rover Range Rover to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Land Rover Range Rover 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 Range Rover's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Range Rover when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Land Rover Range Rover are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Range Rover feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Range Rover travels over minor bumps.
