Ok I'm trying to avoid the big bucks to replace the active suspension shocks (one is leaking and has started to fail). The sport mode is too rough and the non-sport mode is too soft anyway so I figure why not use 2002 Rodeo shocks. The Axiom is suposed to be built on the same frame. Do you know if this can be done? Or do you know of any shocks that will fit this vehicle. I know you can answer, my $5 donation is riding on it.

Regards

Not sure as far as part interchangeability, might want to have a parts store or dealer look up the shocks to see if they cross over. I have a feeling you are going to create more problems by disabling the active suspension.

Well I don't think there will be a parts crossover as the only shocks that will be listed for the Axiom will be the active ones. I guess what I need is a front and rear shock to see if the dimensions are the same as the active ones. I will not disable the active system but will rather leave the car thinking it is in sport mode. You would'nt be able to direct me to a site that might have parts pictures for the Rodeo and Axion woluld you?

Thanks
