so i bought these off bryce from here on the forums last year in august, and he said they would fit 2000 tiburons !!

WELL THEY DONT

my dumbass took him for his word

the part numbers on these struts are 333500 and 333501

will sell for what i paid !! 50 dollars shipped

brand new ! never used !

if outside USA, you pay shipping !

 

why dont they? i have rear gr2 struts from a tib on my car...

 

They are interchangable, what exactly does not fit?

 

Well if they don't fit a 2000 tib, it won't fit any of our RDs

 

that's odd maybe it's from a older one? or it just doesn't fit.

well all i can say to that is they are not safe !! if you had it installed by a pro, then he scammed you or didnt know what he was doing.

the "cup" part that the spring sits into is wider than the stock spring, and even the eibach spring that i went to put in it !! and it seems to be longer as well !

when i had the eibach spring compressed i went to insert the strut into the spring and throught the mount and as i decompressed the spring, it was fully decompressed and still not compressed in the strut with the nut securing the top together liek it should

so after matching the two struts, stock and the gr2 that I have, the "cup" part is wider than the stock 2000 tiburon spring, and the GR2 is longer !!

i cant say only things for sure here is i have part numbers 333500 and 333501 that are claimned to be for 2000 to 2004 elantras

and i need part numbers 333207 and 333208 for the 97 to 01 tiburons !!!


and who knows Bryce, I want to ask him for my money back since he gave me bad info !!!!!!

 

oh i see now

its for the newer body style of elantra not the other thats why it doesnt fit

my elantra has the same chassis you do we have the same struts you do

 

ahhhhhhhh i see now, so elantras up to 99 have the same rear struts as well as fronts as the first and second gen tibs


man it only took us 6 years to figure that one out !!!! LOL

it sucks to say that when your member number 33 !!! LOL

if Redzman posts a comment on here like this is my myspace page, im gonna fly to where ever he is and kick his ass !

 

well mine is a 2k

they changed body styles in late 2k to the newer one so for some reason they mark down a 2k as the same bodystyle as the xd which was marketed as the 2001 elantra

 

Well, nobody driving an 04+ elantra is on here, so you may have more luck on other forums mang..
