Santa Fe	In production	Kerb Weight KG	85% Weight KG	Max Ball Weight KG	Max Towing Weight KG
2.7 V6	2007	1780	1513	80	2000
2.2 CRTD	2007	1823	1549	80	2200
2.2 CRTD Auto	2007	1853	1575	80	2000

not to be rude but the chart says a max of 80 kgs unless its the 2.7 which is 92 kgs.12 kgs is a lot to add on,and the van is has MTPLM of 1397 kgs max.

usually 7% of MTPLM if you cannot find it.

Weights:

Mine is a 20lt td gsi its not listed

still think its only 80 kgs for yours.= 12 kgs over weight

 MTPLM 1490 - 1397 = 93 kgs OVER

add the two together pushing down,you may not need MAD springs.

yes you are right , just looked in the service book,

mad suspension looks a great idea,

cheers
