Description
Abarth 500 / 595 Heavy Duty Adjustable Anti-Roll Bar Drop Link Kit — Pair
A heavy duty adjustable anti-roll bar drop link kit for the Abarth 500 and 595, supplied as a pair (left and right). Designed specifically for lowered vehicles where the standard OE-length drop link operates at an excessive angle, causing accelerated wear, binding, and compromised anti-roll bar geometry. The adjustable length allows the drop link to be set to the correct geometry for your specific ride height, restoring proper anti-roll bar function and eliminating the handling and wear issues associated with lowered OE-length links.

Why Adjustable Drop Links for a Lowered Abarth?
When an Abarth 500 or 595 is lowered on coilovers or lowering springs, the front suspension geometry changes significantly. The standard OE drop link is fixed at 270mm — designed for standard ride height. At a lowered ride height, this fixed-length link forces the anti-roll bar to operate at an increased angle, which causes several problems:
- Premature wear — the ball joints operate outside their designed range, accelerating wear and leading to early failure
- Binding — the link can bind under load, reducing the effectiveness of the anti-roll bar
- Compromised geometry — the anti-roll bar no longer operates at its designed angle, reducing its effectiveness and altering handling balance
- Knocking and rattling — worn or binding drop links are a common source of suspension noise on lowered Abarths
By adjusting the drop link length to suit your specific ride height, the anti-roll bar is returned to its correct operating angle, restoring handling balance and eliminating premature wear.
Heavy Duty Construction
Unlike the standard OE drop link, these adjustable links use heavy duty 10mm ball joints rated for the increased loads associated with performance driving and track use. Suitable for road, track day, and motorsport applications.
Fitment & Compatibility
Designed for the Abarth 500 and 595. Particularly recommended for vehicles lowered on coilovers or lowering springs — including Bilstein B14, B12, and B8 setups. Set the link length to achieve the correct anti-roll bar geometry for your ride height before tightening. Professional installation recommended. For a standard OE-style replacement drop link, see our Abarth 500/595 Front Drop Link (BRT1041).
