Does Your 1991 Nissan 240SX Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1991 Nissan 240SX, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your 240SX bounces, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1991 Nissan 240SX, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel 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 all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Nissan 240SX suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Nissan 240SX Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1991 Nissan 240SX’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 1991 Nissan 240SX shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Nissan 240SX shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1991 Nissan 240SX suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1991 240SX Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 240SX's steering and 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Nissan 240SX? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Nissan 240SX 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’ll follow Nissan service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Nissan 240SX to have a bouncy ride? 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 240SX front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 240SX 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Nissan 240SX need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 240SX feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 240SX travels over minor bumps.
