Replacing Suspension Springs on Fiat Bravo

Model: Fiat Bravo Bravo 2 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Shocks

If the shock absorbers are worn or the springs on your car are sagging, it is better to replace them. Let's see how to remove the front springs. Loosen the wheel nuts, lift the car on a column lift or jack, and remove the wheel. Spray the shock absorber with a penetrating oil, then use a screwdriver to undo the screws of the inner plastic wheel arch. Undo the securing bolts of the oil pipes and the vertical arm bolt. Lower the car to the ground, undo the bolts on the side in the engine bay, and remove the shock absorber from its housing. Separate the spring from the shock absorber. Insert the new shock absorber, after fitting it, place it back in its housing and tighten all the bolts. Test the vehicle's functionality.
