Suspension, Steering & Wheel Alignment
Restore Your Smooth Ride and Handling in Abilene
Texas roads can be tough on your vehicle. From potholes on city streets to unpaved ranch roads, your suspension system takes a beating every day. Over time, this wear and tear affects more than just your comfort. It impacts your safety, your stopping distance, and the lifespan of your tires. At Arrow Ford, we provide expert suspension and steering services to restore the factory handling of your F-150, Explorer, or Mustang.
Signs Your Suspension Needs Repair
You often feel suspension problems before you see them. If your daily drive has become uncomfortable or difficult to control, look for these warning signs:
|
Stability & ControlDrifting or Pulling: If you have to fight the steering wheel to keep your car moving straight, your wheel alignment is likely out of spec. Uneven Tire Wear: If the inside or outside edges are wearing down faster than the center, you have an alignment or camber issue. Steering Vibration: Shaking at highway speeds indicates a balance issue; shaking while braking points to loose suspension components. |
|---|
Ride Comfort & SafetyExcessive Bouncing: Your car should settle quickly after a bump. If it continues to bounce, your shocks or struts are likely worn out. Nose Diving: If the front lurches forward when you brake, your front shocks are failing. This can increase stopping distance by up to 20%. |
