How to Change the Rear Shock Absorber on a Fiat 600

Model: Fiat Seicento MK 1 - Years 1998-2010
Part: Shocks

Removing the rear shock absorber from a Fiat 600? Let’s see how to disassemble the part. Lift the car on a column ramp and identify the shock absorber to be removed. Using a socket spanner, loosen the securing bolts of the shock absorber (at both the top and bottom). Use two spanners to remove the securing bolts (hold one with one hand while loosening with the other) and remove the shock absorber from its housing. Insert the new shock absorber into its housing and first tighten all the bolts at the top of the shock absorber, then secure the bottom.
