The link connects the anti-roll bar to the front suspension arm and consists of a metal rod with two ball joints at its ends: due to the significant stresses it undergoes, the spherical joints tend to wear and develop play, resulting in noise. Replacing them is extremely simple and can be done without lifting the vehicle on a hydraulic lift.

To remove them, block the ball joint shaft with an Allen key to unscrew the retaining nut; the same operation must be performed to tighten it. It is also advisable to replace both links, i.e., left and right sides.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
