Default 1997 Kia Sportage Coil Springs



Can anyone out there tell me what I can do to my Kia to keep springs on it. The coil springs keep breaking. I work in a place that has a really rough road, but reguardless of how slow I go on this road, I have had 3 broken coil springs in the past 5 months.
I know that there are some of you out there that go off roading in your sportages, and I was wondering if you have stock coil springs on your vehicles, or if you have them beefed up. Please, if anyone out there knows how I can fix this, let me know. This is getting really old.... Thank you in advance for any help you all can give.

I have stock springs and get dorty in my sporty on a regualr basis and have never broken a spring, if you are talking about the rear springs you can replace then with Jeep TJ, Ford Aerostar or Mazda MPV springs, although they will give you a diffrent ride hight.

If you keep busting springs, whats happening with the shocks, they by right should be toas by now?
