The purpose of shock absorbers is to slow down the movement of the suspension. If the car has covered many miles, they need to be replaced.

They can be found at any auto parts store. To start the job, gather a compressor and a car, then unscrew all the bolts to remove the wheel.

Next, open the bonnet and remove all the screws located above the shock absorber mount. Then, remove the two screws on the spindle and the one positioned on the stabiliser, which runs parallel to the "affected" shock absorber.

You will notice that the shock absorber will come out very easily.
