  • In this video I cover the process of changing the top bushes on the rear shock absorbers/dampers on Abarth 500/595/695.
    Also applicable for Fiat 500.
    I would strongly recommend purchasing polyurethane replacement bushes - the original design is completely unsuitable and the Polyurethane replacements are much easier to fit.

    Fantastic video, absolutely explained in detail, I’ve a Fiat Abarth 595 (2018) I’ve intermittently got serious squeaking coming from rear suspension on both sides, I’ve looked @ my bushes underneath & there’s huge gaps, so gauge that my bushes have give up the ghost, but after watching your video I don’t sense it’s going to be an expensive job, can’t truly see it being anything else, keep up the cracking videos, you’ve a new subscriber in me, regards Gary⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    All Fiat 500s with oem rear shocks failed prematurely because of the bad design of the upper bushings. I replaced mine with KYBs which have solid rubber bushings. If you can afford them Koni yellows are a great upgrade again with solid rubber bushings.

    Why screw around replacing the bushings? Considering the economics and time involved, replace those wimpy oem shocks with new upgrade shocks you’ll thank me 😊

    Or one could use a bench vice to push out the bushes…
