How to replace the front shock absorbers in the Fiat 500?

Model: Fiat 500 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Shocks

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the front shock absorbers in the Fiat 500, a simple and quick operation that still requires good manual skills. First of all, we lift the front side of the vehicle, taking the necessary safety measures, then we open the hood and unscrew the upper fixing bolt. We then remove the wheel, disconnect the brake system tube, and unscrew the two lower fixing bolts. At this point, we separate the shock absorber from the suspension, position the replacement, and follow the reverse procedure to reassemble everything.
