Why Replace the Suspension Arm Front Bush?

The front bush of the front suspension arm controls lateral movement of the arm under cornering loads. Its condition directly affects steering precision and the consistency of front wheel alignment under load. OEM rubber bushes degrade over time — cracking, hardening, and losing their ability to control arm movement accurately. Symptoms of a worn front bush include:

• Vague or imprecise steering feel, particularly through corners
• Increased body roll or instability under cornering
• Knocking or clunking from the front suspension
• Uneven or accelerated front tyre wear

Replacing with Powerflex polyurethane eliminates these issues and provides a bush that will outlast multiple sets of OEM rubber replacements.

Front Bush and Rear Bush — Replace Together

The front suspension arm has two bushes — a front bush (this product, BRT930) and a rear bush (BRT931). If one bush is worn, the other is likely to be in a similar condition. We recommend replacing both bushes simultaneously for a complete arm refurbishment. The rear bush is available separately — see our Powerflex Abarth 500/595 Front Suspension Arm Rear Bush (BRT931) — £82.80 per pair.

Bush-Only vs Complete Arm Replacement

If your suspension arm is in good condition but the bush is worn, replacing the bush alone is a cost-effective alternative to full arm replacement. If the arm itself is damaged, corroded, or the ball joint is worn, a complete arm replacement is recommended instead — see our pre-assembled Powerflex arm kits:

• Halogen models — Road Series: Abarth 500/595 Front Suspension Arms with Powerflex Road Series Bushes (BRT1143)
• Halogen models — Black Series: Abarth 500/595 Front Suspension Arms with Powerflex Black Series Bushes (BRT1142)
• Xenon models — Road Series: Abarth 500/595 Xenon Front Suspension Arms with Powerflex Road Series Bushes (BRT1145)
