When To Get 1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Mighty Max bounces, sways 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 1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max 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 absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Mighty Max suspension system needs repair, 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 parts of your Mitsubishi Mighty Max 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Mitsubishi Mighty Max

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Mighty Max’s shocks and struts 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 can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Mighty Max shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Mighty Max’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 1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mitsubishi's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mitsubishi Mighty Max? 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 Mitsubishi intended.
  • Does my Mitsubishi Mighty Max 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Mitsubishi's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Mighty Max bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Mighty Max to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Mighty Max front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Mighty Max 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.
  • What do worn Mitsubishi Mighty Max shocks feel like? Worn Mighty Max shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Mighty Max might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Mighty Max shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
