Pedders Rear Suspension Conversion Kit - Hyundai Santa Fe

This rear suspension conversion kit replaces the original self-levelling system on Hyundai Santa Fe models. It offers a direct bolt-in solution that restores the vehicle's original ride height while improving control, especially under towing and heavy load conditions.

Key Features

• Supplied as a matched set of springs and shocks.
• Individually shock dyno tested as a complete suspension system mated to existing OE hardware.
• Restores the original height of the vehicle.
• Pedders gas shocks feature heavy-duty twin-tube gas construction and reinforced double-welded mountings.
• System designed and valved to work together for optimal performance.
• Provides an easy and cost-effective conversion from coil overs.
• Includes 2 Year / 40,000km warranty.

Product Overview

The kit eliminates the need for the original self-levelling dampers, which have weaker springs and rely partly on the shock for weight support. By replacing these with matched springs and dampers, the vehicle's correct stance is restored and ride height returned to manufacturer specification. The conversion also addresses underdamping experienced during towing or heavy loading, resulting in enhanced vehicle control.

This solution suits both vehicles equipped with and without the self-levelling option. It is suitable for daily driving and towing scenarios where improved suspension performance is required. Vehicle height is based on 16-inch wheels, but the kit fits independently of wheel size.

Technology & Materials

Pedders gas shocks are constructed with a heavy-duty twin-tube gas design for durability and consistent damping. Reinforced double-welded mountings provide long-term strength. The matched spring and shock set are carefully valved and designed to work together within the vehicle's existing suspension system, ensuring reliable performance.

Installation & Compatibility

This kit is a direct bolt-in replacement using your vehicle's original equipment hardware. No modifications or additional parts are required. It is supplied as a matched set of springs and shocks ready for straightforward installation. After fitment, a professional wheel alignment is recommended to optimise vehicle handling and tyre wear.

This kit is focused on restoring comfort and ride height rather than heavy-duty load handling. For frequent heavy loading or towing, a stiffer spring version (Pedders part number 803314) is available.

Technical Specification

• Rear Vehicle Height: Standard height with 16-inch wheels (fitment independent of wheel size).
• Kit Part Number: 803193 (standard springs); alternate heavy-duty springs: 803314.
• Supplied as matched spring and shock set.
• Includes original equipment hardware compatibility.

Note: Vehicle ride height measurements are based on 16-inch wheels, but the kit fits all wheel sizes. Variance in height may occur with different accessories or load conditions.
