How do you change the wishbone on a Peugeot 208? Let's see how to disassemble the front arm. First, place the car on a column lift and loosen the wheel nuts with a socket wrench. Then, lift the car to a comfortable height and remove the wheel.

Use a socket to unscrew the lower tightening bolt of the arm and the bolt mounted under the wheel hub. Unscrew the bolts on the upper part of the arm (as shown in the video). Remove the arm from the bolt housing with the help of a pry bar. Always compare the parts to be replaced with the new ones; if they are suitable, you can install them.

Now, begin the installation of the new part: insert the arm into the two ends of the guides and tighten all the bolts and components.
