Is It Time For 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88, 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. Maybe your Delta 88 bounces, pulls 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 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Oldsmobile Delta 88’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.

Oldsmobile Delta 88 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 Oldsmobile up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Oldsmobile Delta 88 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1987 Oldsmobile Delta 88 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1987 Delta 88 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Delta 88's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Oldsmobile Delta 88? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Oldsmobile intended.
  • When should I have my Oldsmobile Delta 88 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Delta 88’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Oldsmobile's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile Delta 88 bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Delta 88 goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Delta 88 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Delta 88 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 do I know if I have worn Oldsmobile Delta 88 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Delta 88 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Delta 88 travels over minor bumps.
