To replace the front shock absorber on a Peugeot Boxer, detach the dashboard cover located at the bottom left of the steering column. Underneath, you will find the bolts securing the shock absorber at the top, which must be loosened.

Then, lift the vehicle to unscrew the bolts that secure the front wheel and remove it from its housing. Once the wheel is removed, you can unscrew the bolts that secure the shock absorber to completely remove it and replace it with a new one.
