In this tutorial, describe how to remove worn wishbones and replace them with new ones. Before starting, lift the vehicle on a ramp and spray the worn and rusty nuts of the wishbones with WD-40. Then, hold the other end of the wishbone steady and use a ratchet spanner to undo the bolts of the first wishbone.

You will immediately notice that the rubber that absorbs shocks is completely worn out. Now move on to the other wishbone and repeat the same operation as before. After that, refit both wishbones and tighten them manually to keep them secure, ensuring good safety on the road.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

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. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
