As a Abarth owner and fan, I follow a lot of CZcams sites, this by far is the best tutorial for rear shocks I have seen! U saved me a bucket of money man!!! Since I did not know I was gonna fork over cash to the stealership, before I learned from u. Thx very much!
Don't forget to tighten the shock mount bolts with the car on the ground or the rear swing beam in the position it will be in at rest. Failure to do so means the rubber bushes will be stretched at rest and even more so on compression of rear suspension which leads to tearing and early failure. Nice car though!
Hi there, nice video, I have to do the same to my one, just wondering, is it necessary to take both out, drop the axle, then put the shocks back on, reason I ask is because I don't want to mess with the springs, so I was planning to do one side then the other, without dropping the whole axle, possible you think? Cheers

Nice vid. Looks super easy. Thanks
Thanks for posting Very helpful video.
Why the 1st springs had the part with the closest turns side down and the new ones not?
Very clear. Thanks

Thanks for the video. Did you changed or cut the bumper stop? And are these the pro kit eibach? I got the same set up not yet installed
Could you tell a difference with the Koni’s vs. Stock?
Why did you disconnect one end of the torsion bar?
The rear shock is a 15mm bolt.Thats because it's metric and not 5/8.Fiat made in Italy =Metric.😂
its a 15mm, its a European car.
