need to identify parts - Seicento Sporting

Hi All,

I have a couple of problems with my Seciento and need to identify a couple of parts so that I can get them from Fiat or an aftermarket place tomorrow.

Basically I was changing the wishbones (lower arms) on both sides. on the passenger side, the bolt on the clamp that holds the anti-roll bar to the wishbone has snapped, so I need to know the name of this part. It bolts to the lower arm, then a clamp with a rubber bush holds the anti-roll bar to the lower arm.

On the drivers side, The rear clamp that holds the wishbone / lower arm to the car body (also holds the anti-roll bar clamp) has snapped due to rust.

Can anyone help with identifying the names of these parts so that I know what I am asking for when I go to get them?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

take your Vin chassis number into fiat, they will bring up a picture on the screen, you can then just point to the bits

Thanks for that, rust is a pain in the ar*e. The bolts literally just snapped off as soon as i tried to undo the nut. So the anti-roll bar is not properly attached at the moment. Hoping that Fiat or an aftermarket place will carry the clamp parts in stock as I need to get this fixed ASAP. The mrs will go bananas.

Unlikely to be a stock part, I'm afraid.

Cheers

Do you think somewhere like Andrew Pages is likely to stock this part once I have managed to get it identified?

Thanks

If its only the arb mount on the chassis thats missing ,yes, but if its the wishbone locating eye is damaged, then, no.

Cheers

Re: need to identify parts - Seicento Sporting

It is the mounting that holds the rear of the wishbone to the chassis, the bolt attached to this mounting that secures the anti roll bar bracket snapped off that one so its the wishbone rear mounting that i need there.

The second is that clamp like part that slots through two eyes on the wish bone and then clamps underneath it, the top part clamps over the anti roll bar to hold it down.

Out of these two, do you think any are likely to be stock (sorry, previous post confused me a little as to which part you were talking about)

thanks
