Replacing the rear shock absorbers is straightforward and does not require spring compressors; start by lifting the vehicle on a ramp to unscrew the fastening bolt of the lower shock absorber eye and support it with a jack to remove the pin; then remove the jack, lower the vehicle, and access the boot to remove both the plastic cover of the pillar and the carpet to reach the strut; unscrew the fastening nut to complete the disassembly; fit the boot and the mount to the new shock absorber and proceed in reverse for installation.

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.
