In order to replace the front shock absorber of the Volkswagen Amarok, you need to lift the car so that it is possible to loosen the corresponding front wheel, removing it completely from its hub: once this has been removed, it will be possible to locate the shock absorber located between the suspension and the upper strut.

By unscrewing the screw at the bottom, it will then be possible to open the hood and loosen the screw at the top: in this way, the old shock absorber can be removed so that the new one can be inserted.
