Does Your 1993 Lexus SC400 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1993 Lexus SC400, 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. Perhaps your SC400 feels bouncy, leans 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 1993 Lexus SC400 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your SC400 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Lexus SC400 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Lexus SC400 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1993 Lexus SC400’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. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Lexus up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your SC400’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Lexus SC400 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1993 Lexus SC400 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1993 SC400 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Lexus'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. 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 Lexus SC400? 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.
  • When does Lexus SC400 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your SC400’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Lexus SC400 to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your SC400 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my SC400 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your SC400 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.
  • What do worn Lexus SC400 shocks feel like? Worn SC400 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.
