To replace the rear suspension on a classic Fiat 500, lift the car using a ramp or jack so that the wheels are not in contact with the ground. Once lifted, proceed to dismantle the suspension components from underneath the vehicle.

You can then loosen the bolts securing the CV joint so that the wheel hub can be separated from it. Next, undo the parts securing the shock absorbers at the top and bottom, replacing everything with new spare parts.
