Hyundai H100 Springs
Springs for the Hyundai H100 — new, used and aftermarket stock, quoted once we know which H100 you are running
What Are Hyundai H100 Springs?
Springs are the steel coils that support the car's weight and absorb bump energy, working alongside the dampers. On Hyundais we see broken coil springs on the i20 and Accent where SA's potholed roads fatigue the metal — usually snapping at the bottom coil with a loud clunk.
Signs You Need New Springs
Getting the right springs for your H100 first time
Does one springs listing cover every H100?
No. Sold here across Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, the H100 is not one car for parts purposes — it is several.Dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model.
Which engine is in my H100?
SA-market cars were sold with the 2.5 and 2.6 diesels as badged on the SA derivatives. The code stamped on the block settles it — the badge on the boot does not.
What do you need from me to quote springs?
The generation code and whether the car is front- or all-wheel drive. South African road surfaces punish suspension harder than the markets these cars were tuned for, and the SUVs in the range carry noticeably different rear geometry between two-wheel- and all-wheel-drive derivatives.
In South Africa the H100 is mostly small-business transport that is loaded to its limit daily, which is why clutch, driveline and front-suspension parts dominate demand rather than trim or electronics. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai H100 Springs FAQs
Will springs from another H100 fit mine?
Not automatically. The H100 sold in South Africa as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, and dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about H100 springs?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The H100 ran as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, so the generation is what narrows the search.
How do I spot a broken coil spring on a Hyundai?
A sudden clunk over potholes, the car sitting down on one corner, uneven tyre wear and sometimes a scrape on full bump. Turn the steering lock-to-lock and look into the arch — a broken spring is usually visible at the bottom coil, which makes this one of the few suspension faults you can confirm yourself in a minute.
Is it safe to drive a Hyundai with a broken spring?
Briefly, at low speed, to get home or to a workshop. Not beyond that — the broken coil can perforate a tyre and damage the strut, and the handling is already compromised. Book it in within a day or two rather than a week.
Why do springs break on South African roads specifically?
Potholes and unsealed shoulders load a spring in ways the road it was designed for never did, and a car that habitually carries weight in the boot settles faster on that axle. It is the single most common suspension failure we see on cars that live outside the metros.
What does a coil spring cost for a Hyundai?
Our SA supplier network stocks Hyundai coil-spring replacements and they are typically inexpensive parts. Labour is the bigger variable, since strut assembly removal takes about an hour a side. Request a free quote with your model and generation for an all-in figure.
Do Hyundai springs have to be replaced in pairs?
On the same axle, yes. A fresh spring next to a settled one leaves the car sitting unevenly and handling worse than before you started. The labour is already committed once the corner is apart, so doing both is the cheaper decision as well as the correct one. If one corner sits low, compare ride height with a tape measure — anything more than 10mm difference warrants a swap.

A part number from the old unit, or simply your VIN, is enough for us to identify the right springs for your H100.
