To replace the rear shock absorbers on the Fiat Punto, lift the car using a ramp and loosen the bolts that secure the wheel at the end of the rear axle. Once the wheel has been removed, loosen the bolts that secure the shock absorber at the top and bottom.

This will allow you to detach the shock absorber and replace it with a new replacement part; after the new shock absorber has been secured with the appropriate bolts, reinstall the wheel, performing the same operation on the other side.
