Is It Time For 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Gran Fury feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury in for steering and suspension services. 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, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Gran Fury steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Plymouth Gran Fury

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury’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 getting your 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Gran Fury shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Plymouth's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Plymouth Gran Fury get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Plymouth intended.
  • When does Plymouth Gran Fury power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Gran Fury is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Plymouth's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Plymouth Gran Fury bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Gran Fury to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Gran Fury tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Gran Fury's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Plymouth Gran Fury need replacing? If your Gran Fury shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Gran Fury might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
