Fiat number 46459723

Brand snr
Part number ks558.01

Use google / ebay

These part numbers are for the bearing that the radius arms rotate on

 

[jackwhoo]

Do you need both sides or just 1?
If one side which left or right?

Where in country are you?

Are you doing the job yourself?
There are a couple of pitfalls to avoid.

Even if you getting someone else to do start spraying penetrating oil between the metal plates that clamp the radius arm in position and the radius arms. This will help removed the long bolt that goes through the bearings-which can be seized very tight.
Plus spray the all the bolts that hold the anti roll bar to radius arms.

From memory you will likely need a 15mm socket, preferably with only 6 sides not 12 sides......
It may be 16mm

No im not doing it myself, but ill pass your info on.

Thank you.

Best stuff to use is Plusgas, and plenty of it too. Haven't found anything as good, anywhere. (WD40 is NOT any good for this sort of thing, believe me!!)
