2001 shocks springs struts sagging

  

wifes_santa_fe -> 2001 shocks springs struts sagging (7/11/2007 1:58:20 PM)

Hi, has anyone replaced their rear shocks, front struts, and springs on a 1st gen Santy?  I have 67k miles and the time is here.  I was just wondering if there where any aftermarket springs rather than the dealer only as they are around $80 each and if they are any other aftermarket struts and shock mfg's other than monroe & kyb.

Years back there was a guy who upgraded his rear shock from another vehicle (can't remember which one or which forum it was on) in which he raised the rear end to minimize the rear sag.  Anyone around that remembers this or knows of it???

Thanks.

Hi, just fitted a pair of 'MAD' helper springs to the rear of my 2005 crtd Santa Fe mainly to help with towing (1500kg caravan trailer). Don't know if they are available your side of the pond but found them through google. Certainly help with towing, firm up the back end and also help the handling. Very discrete they fit inside the standard spring. Would recommend.
