Replacing the rear shock absorbers is relatively easy since the damper and spring are not co-axial; start by opening the rear hatch and removing the plastic cap on the internal trim above the shock absorber dome, then unscrew the stem retaining nut and remove the plate and support rubber; lift the vehicle using a jack under the rear axle to unscrew and remove the fixing pin of the shock absorber eyelet and take the shock absorber out of its seat; transfer the washer, bush, and rubber from the old 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.

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