General Cinquecento - rear trailing arm bushes

MarkPage · Jun 18, 2007

Afternoon everyone.

I'm looking for some advice regarding my Cinquecento. It failed its MOT this weekend due to excessive play in the rear trailing arm bushes. I've been looking at several sites and I'm seeing conflicting advice as to whether you can just replace the bushes or have to replace the whole arm.

Has anyone actually tried this before to know if its possible?

Thanks, Mark

Yes you can change the bushes, it will work out alot cheaper than changing the whole arm.

I have to do this on my car, i have the parts but have not had time to fit them.

Cheers Nick
