I'm looking at putting the usual aftermarket items (snorkle, suspension etc) on my 2011 model Jimny. However whenever I look online the majority of parts seem to be 1998-2010 or 2012-onwards. I assume 2010 parts wouldn't be an issue. But I am hoping somebody can clarify please. Thank you. |

Depends what parts your referring to? Jimny's have a different bulllbar to suit the face lift models. |

2011 was the change over year. My (old shape) was built and exported from Japan in 2011, but landed in Aus and the compliance plate is stamped 2012. But at the end of the day the only real difference is the front end. Facelift models have different ends on the chassis rails (new models are an open C section, older ones are a box section), so bullbars aren't interchangeable. The front quarter panels have a slightly different profile, but snorkels from older models can still be fitted. There's a number of facelift Jimnys on here with old model snorkels on them (check out Shep's build thread for one). Suspension components are the same across all models. The only area I'm not 100% about is the rear chassis mounts for towbars and recovery points. I haven't heard of any issues with people mounting towbars, so I would guess they are the same for all years as well. |
