For all Alfa Giulietta 940 (2010 - ).
The set consists of 10 polyurethane-bushes - it replaces 10 of the 12 rubber bushes which are mounted in total in the various rear suspension arms.
The bush in the lower suspension arm with which the lower end of the shock absorber is mounted is not available.
This set is a smart and really cheap alternative compared to the extremely expensive complete suspension arms Alfa Romeo offers (all six suspension arms cost about 1500,00 EUR).
In addition the PU bushes improve the directional stability of the Giulietta at high speeds (> 200 kph).
Polyurethane (PU) bushes are about 30 % stiffer than OE / OEM rubber bushes used which are used by the car industry. A suspension which is equipped with PU bushes will give a much more responsive handling. The PU-bushes do not age while OE / OEM rubber bushes get softer with the time which can set the axle's geometry the wrong way. This then results in increased tyre wear.
We do not want to keep secret that PU-bushes reduce the ride comfort of your Alfa. They send all those humps and bumps more directly to the chassis than standard rubber bushes. We recommend PU-bushes only for drivers who like a more sporty setup. Because of the bushes' design there could also be a minimal increase in the noise level. Drivers who prefer a more comfortable setup should opt for OE / OEM rubber bushes.
