Parts

While parts catalogues and stuff for the Jimny aren’t always easily obtained, they are out there in various forms. This page is mostly going to be filled out with a compilation of cross-reference or different market parts for various things that people don’t necessarily think about, or questions I often seem to get for parts.

Sections


Suppliers

People often ignore it as an option but I’ve got both good prices and good service out of genuine dealership parts suppliers. Often it is worth giving them a call first as you can sometimes find other resellers end up just marking up the genuine price RRP and it’s cheapest and fastest from the dealer network.

One of the best Australian suppliers is 4wdpartshop in Perth. Really fantastic group of people to deal with, and carry a wide range of genuine and aftermarket parts.

Another legit supplier in Australia is Onlinecarparts and I have used in the past for both genuine parts and accessories. Similarly, Jarvis Parts are good for both genuine parts and accessories.

Internationally, the best option these days seems to be PartSouq though often you need to search on part numbers; VIN searching or from catalogues is hit and miss for gen4 Jimny parts.

Part number systematics

There’s a numbering scheme used for Suzuki parts, though they aren’t always applied strictly. Understanding how parts are numbered can help a lot in finding various parts, especially if you’re looking for cross-fitting parts.

Part numbers by default take the form [what it is]-[1st model it was used on info/revisions]-[modifiers or versions]. The ‘what it is’ section essentially covers the part itself; the model stuff (especially the first 3 digits/letters) is much more interesting as you’ll see a variety here usually relating to particular models. Examples you’ll often see in the model area might be -77R or -78R which are 4th generation Jimny related, or 80T for 5 door Jimnys. The last couple of digits here often then refer to either options or revisions within a model. -77R appears to be items common to JB64 and JB74 by default, and JB74 specific origins are noted by -78R.

Sometimes part numbers will have a letter instead of a hyphen separating the initial part of the part number. The main time you will see this is an M which indicates a Maruti sourced part, although sometimes there are others relating to different suppliers of bolts and the like.

The final part of the part number is often just -000 as a default, but this sometimes can represent a revised part (e.g. -000 might get replaced with a -010 or -020). This can also represent different options e.g. different colours for panels or where there were interior trim colour variations.

Example model codes in part numbers:

  • JB33: -80A; -81A
    (e.g. air filter pipe 13881-80A00, air filter housing assembly 13700-81A00)
  • JB74: -77R, 78R
    (e.g. air filter pipe 13766-78R00, air filter housing assembly 13700-78R00; revision to air filter housing 13700-78R20)
  • JC74: M80T
    (e.g. head liner 78110M80T00-6GS, vs. 78110-77R10-6GS for a 3 door)

These systematics do help a lot in understanding what parts might cross-fit from older models, but also what might have changed, e.g. the wider and reinforced front differential housing for a gen4 is part number 45500-78R00, indicating it originated in a 3 door 4th generation large engine Jimny, against a late model gen3 axle with part number 45500-81A72.

I’m sure Suzuki internally understand how they allocate this model specific codes to part numbers but it’s not immediately obvious from the outside looking in!


Model and market codes

-77Rxx and 78Rxx within part numbers are parts originating with the JB64/JB74. Internally, the Suzuki model code for these cars are A6G415.

M80Txx within part numbers are parts originating with the JC74 (i.e. 5 door), with internal model code A6N415.

Market designations that you might see in parts listings. I’ve split these up into the groupings that appear in JB74 parts catalogues

JDM

  • E00 Japan

UK and Europe

  • E02 UK
  • E22 Germany (formerly East Germany)
  • E54 Israel

South America

  • E10 Chile
  • E85 General South America? (unlisted in most catalogues)
  • E96 Peru

Middle East

  • E43 Saudi Arabia

Africa and Australia

  • E05 General Africa
  • E06 South Africa
  • E24 Australia
  • E32 Nigeria
  • E35 Hong Kong
  • E38 Taiwan
  • E42 Pakistan
  • E90 Russia (former Soviet Union)

Note this doesn’t mean those markets get the same specifications, e.g. the Africa and Australia listing has a number of ECUs (for emissions reasons) and even differences in airbag and safety specs; however, they are how the parts catalogues are grouped.

For a full list of Suzuki market codes, the Rhino Power database is the most useful.

Engine and related

Air intake

Air filter assembly: 13700-78R00, revised to 13700-78R20 (which looks like it has more clips than the original 2 clip assembly). 5 door air cleaner assembly should cross-fit and is 13700M78R10.

Ignition and fuel injectors

Coil packs are 33400-78R00, which doesn’t even include their bolt (01560-0625B M6x25)

Injectors complete with O-rings are 15710-81P01:

  • Top o-ring fuel rail to injector 15716-68P00
  • Injector itself not listed as individual part without o-rings
  • Bottom o-ring injector to inlet manifold 15717-68P00
  • Injector clip (not included in the injector part #) is 15715-61P00

Sensors and other engine electrical

Crank position sensor 33220-64L10

Cam position sensor 33220-86P00

Starter motor 31100-78R00

Alternator stuff I cover separately.

Oil pressure switch 37820-80GP0 and coolant temp sensor

PCV system

PCV valve is 18118-60M00, seal into the the valve cover 11198M79F00, hose 11193-78R00

Fuel pump

Nominally the entire fuel pump hanger including the sender unit gets replaced; individual parts are not listed by Suzuki. The only individual part that they list separate to the hanger/fuel filter/fuel pump assembly is the sender arm for the fuel gauge.

Fuel pump for 2019 cars was 15100-78R00 which was revised to 15100-78R01 for later cars. The original fuel pumps were subject to a recall in Australia down to the impeller swelling up over time, making the fuel pump stop working.

An ebay listing for a used pump/hanger assembly indicated that there is a Denso part number on it which is 292100-2701.

To date I haven’t found a supplier of this part number as an alternate to buying via the Suzuki parts desk.

Upgraded high-flow fuel pumps exist, especially useful for forced induction applications.

Cooling system

Water pump: 17400-69L02

Water pump bolts to engine block: 01550-0830C (M8 x 30mm, need 4)

Water pump stud: 01421-0835A (M8 x 35mm, need 2) and nut 08316-1008A (M8 locking, need 2)

Belts and pulleys

Idler pulley for alternator/waterpump belt: 1753050M00 -> 17530-50M30

Crank pulley: 12610-81P00

Water pump pulley: 17511-68M00 and bolts 17512-61P00 (M6 x ??, need 4)

Water pump belt: 17521-78R00 (5PK951)

A/C stretch belt: 95141-77R10 (4PK724)

A/C pulley/clutch clips (without magnetic clutch actuator): 95298-50M01

A/C pulley/clutch clips/magnetic clutch: 95210-77R10


Driveline

Manual transmission

Entire transmission assembly is 20008-78R00 revised to 20008-78R10-01, though some parts desks will refer to that as 20008-78R00-999 instead. No details on exactly what the revision is, as it can be as simple as a different manufacturer of the casting of the cases due to supply chain changes.

The only internal changes appear to be around the 5th gear synchro (which is not something that appears to get many complaints about!):

  • A bent washer that provides preload onto 5th gear synchro, a bit like a Belville washer (24436-81051) that has been discontinued from its original part number;
  • A circlip on the back (output) side of 5th synchro (09380M19004 revised to 09380M19005); and,
  • The keys used for the 5th gear synchro: 3x 24471-60D00-000, also discontinued from its previous part number.

Generally the manual transmissions have proven to be reliable although some people report 2nd gear synchro issues or either input or countershaft bearing failures. Certainly hard to pinpoint any parts revisions that point to either of these areas.

Transfer case

Three apparent revisions for the (manual) chain itself: 29225-84A00, 29225-84A10 and 29225-84A20. The first part number there matches the chain used for the 1.5L diesel Jimnys in Europe. Later ones date from the gen4 Jimnys, and the last one is also what is listed for the 5 door Jimnys (which run all the same transfer case as the 3 doors, no reason why it would be different as there’s no difference in power etc).

Revised manual transfer case chain (set): 29200-78R20. The revised chain set includes some of the other items you should replace when rebuilding a transfer case as noted in the technical bulletin provided out of the UK.

Automatic transfer case chain is 29225-55C00, revised to 29225-55C10 (based on 5 door parts diagram). Since (virtually) no-one with automatic cars reports the same transfer case chain noise then there’s fewer revisions and no reason to suspect there’s massive differences for automatics.


Suspension, steering and axles

Swivel hub rebuild kits are offered by some UK dealers, and contain parts 45120-81A11 (seal and gasket kit for swivels), 09283-26016 and 09265-15006 (kingpin bearings) and supposedly that includes an updated swivel hub seal (ends in 04).

Kingpin bearings are 09265-15006 (need 2 per side of the car), a 30302J bearing. Koyo are the OE supplier for the OEM bearings.

If you see a Koyo dealer then they can hook you up with HC30302JRRS which is a sealed version of the kingpin bearings. Some sites list the kingpin bearings as 45630-82A00 but this appears to just be an alias for the OEM sealed bearings, which are also available as 09265-15005.

Steering boxes are not rebuildable, entire unit to replace it is 48600-78R00 (for RHD).

Drag link and tie rod ends are different RHD to LHD only down to which side goes where; drag link and tie rod are the same, as are lock nuts (but swap sides) and the ball joint and split pins to lock the ball joint through the taper.

RHD drag link/tie rods

  • Ball joint nut: 09140-12039, split pin 09385-12002 (one each per ball joint you need it for)
  • Drag link end to attach to steering damper: 48820-78R10, lock nut 09140-16023
  • Drag link end to passengers side hub: 48810-78R00, lock nut 09140-16022 (same as tie rod)
  • Drag link: 48931-78R10
  • Tie rod end, passengers side: 48810-78R00, lock nut 09140-16022 (same as drag link end)
  • Tie rod end, drivers side: 48820-78R00
  • Tie rod: 48831-78R10

LHD drag link/tie rods

  • Ball joint nut: 09140-12039, split pin 09385-12002 (one each per ball joint you need it for)
  • Drag link end to attach to steering damper: 48810-78R10, lock nut 09140-16022
  • Drag link end to passengers side hub: 48820-78R00, lock nut 09140-16023 (same as tie rod)
  • Drag link: 48931-78R10
  • Tie rod end, passengers side: 48820-78R00, lock nut 09140-16023 (same as drag link end)
  • Tie rod end, drivers side: 48810-78R00
  • Tie rod: 48831-78R10

Differentials

Are gen3 and gen4 diffs interchangeable? I used to think so: same gearing (though swapped manual to auto compared to gen3 M13A VVT Jimnys), and it’s the same centres for LSDs, e-locker or air lockers. However, there’s a number of parts which differ. It could be as simple as a revision to the carrier casting and some flow on effects from that, but there’s enough differences that I’m not totally sure.

Let’s look at the rear diffs between generation 3 as an example to understand what things are carried over and what bits are new. Photos are from some ebay listings and the parts figures are from Suzuki Indonesia. Parts highlighted in green appear to be carried over.

The parts table themselves I used to extract this info from is based on a late model (2015+ JB43, and launch JB74 revision) to try to get them as close as possible.

Interior electrics

Autonomous braking

Cover for the AEB camera is 78195-77R00-5PK.

AEB module itself varies on trim level and transmission. RHD automatic GLX appears to be 33990-78RB1; RHD manual GLX 33990-78RD1; RHD lite/GL spec 33990-78RC1. Taiwan and Hong Kong appear to get a different unit for the GLX cars: automatic 33990-78RH0, manual 33990-78RK0.

Wiper stalks

Factory Australian JB74 wiper stalks (fixed speed intermittent): 37310-74P10
This is what all 3 door Australian Jimnys come with. They have a fixed speed front intermittent wiper setting only.

Factory Australian JC74 wiper stalks (variable speed intermittent, fixed speed rear intermittent): 37310M68P21
This is equivalent to the Swift and other wiper stalks from Japanese cars with a rear intermittent wiper position: 37310-68P21 but is Maruti sourced instead. Note that on any 3 door Jimny the rear intermittent position will not work, but the variable speed intermittent will.

JDM variable speed intermittent (variable speed front intermittent, no rear intermittent position): 37310-74P20
This stalk allows you to have variable speed front intermittent on a RHD 3 door Jimny but does not have a rear intermittent position. On a 3 door Jimny the rear intermittent positions on Swift or JC74/5 door Jimny stalks don’t do anything.

Right hand wiper stalk, fixed intermittent position: 37310-74P40
This stalk would be for LHD 3 door Jimnys

Headlight stalks

There’s a lot of variety in headlight stalks for Jimnys. One key difference is if the car has automatic headlights or not.

Auto headlight models, even those with halogen headlights, integrate the steering angle sensor & report switch stuff via CAN. Non auto headlights are more traditional and the steering angle sensor stuff is done differently for those cars. Also note that some RHD markets (e.g. the UK) can have left-hand indicator stalks, vs. other markets (Japan, Australia, possibly India) where it would be a right-hand indicator stalk.

In Suzuki speak these stalks are called ‘combination switches’ which sometimes trips people up when they’re looking for parts. My description of what functions are might be a bit off as I’m going off international wrecking yard listings to verify what stalk part # is what.

Right side stalk auto on headlights, fog light (Aus JB74 GLX, JC74): 37210-74PA3 or 37410M55TB0
The part number with the M in it is Maruti sourced and is the listed correct option for JC74s, but the JB74 part should interchange and work fine too.

Right side stalk auto on headlights, no fog light (Aus JB74 lite/international GL): 37210-74PB1

Right side stalk no auto on headlights (a ‘GA’ model): 37210-74P00

Left hand stalk, auto on headlights, rear and rear+front fog position (UK RHD SZ5): 37210-74PE1
This stalk has a separate position for a rear fog light and then a rear and front foglight. Note that it is a stalk designed to be on the left so will not likely work with Australian cars.

Left hand stalk, auto headlights, rear fog only (UK RHD LCV): 37210-74PF1
This appears to be for the LCV models with halogen headlights and no fog lights, but retains a rear fog light position

Currently not sorted info

Left hand stalk, GL, E32/E05: 37210-74P30

Left hand stalk, GL, E43: 37210-74P50

Left hand stalk, GA, E32: 37210-74P20

Left hand stalk, GA, E43: 37210-74P40

Interior switches

In the switch position by the drivers side, short Toyota switches fit if you want aftermarket switches. While there are some 3d printed adapters, the seat heater switches in the centre console area do not take any standard sized aftermarket switches but can be enlarged to take other switches quite readily.

Dash switch blanks are 37285-74P00

Seat heater switches: right side 37850-81P20, left side 37850-81P10, blanks 37285-75F10

Manual headlight levelling: 35180-81P00 – but there is also probably a Maruti sourced one for which I don’t yet have a part number (presumably 35180M81P00, though this returns nothing at this stage)

Combined lane departure/collision warning disable switch (factory JC74 part): 37692M80T00
Note wiring will not match factory wiring in a 3 door JB74 but is an option to give you an extra switch space in the dashboard for aftermarket switches.


Wipers and washers

If you’re converting to LED headlights and want washers: Headlight washer squirter covers, as fitted to the cars with LED headlights, are 39153-77R00 (need 2).

There are two nozzles, one for the right (39151-77R00) and one for the left (39152-77R00). These nozzles are included with the hose which runs through the bumper and is part 39120-77R10.

Hose down from the washer bottle and pump are included together as part 39120-77R00. Grommet into the washer tank to seal the pump is part 38453-77RA0.

The washer tank itself is also different to the cars without headlight washers and is part 38403-77R10. Note the washer tank should fit straight in the same location and the front and rear washer pumps would transfer over from the washer tank.

Speaking of the other washer motors:

  • Front washer motor is 38410-84M00
  • Rear washer motor is 38410-81M00
  • Sealing grommet for each is 38453-57L00
  • Hoses out to front and rear washers together are 38459-77R00
  • 90 degree joint on rear washer line is 38496-57L00

Seats

Presently I’m not aware of a direct (or easy) fit seat for the cars with airbags, especially for 3 door Jimnys with fold-forward seats. So no Swift Sport seats directly dropped in or anything yet. Aftermarket options exist but are not cheap to install given you need ones compatible with the Jimny’s airbag system.

Centre push rivets, smaller (e.g. rear lower trim near jack storage area): 09409-07340 (6.8X11.5 push clip)

Seatbelts

Some markets get rear seatbelts which can be unbuckled to make it easier to use without rear seats. It doesn’t look like these seatbelts have the provision for rear seatbelt pretensioners as Australian cars have fitted. If I find a version that does then I’ll provide part numbers, but I’d prefer not to encourage people to swap to a less safe version (plus you’ll end up with SRS/airbag warnings if you disconnect the pretensioners).

Rear door interior latch

This one is less parts crossfit and more a collection of what’s needed to add the UK/European LCV spec rear door latch. This gives you a physical method to open the back door from inside which is super useful sleeping in the car.

Rebuild kits

  • Front swivel hubs
  • Front CVs
  • Rear wheel bearings
  • Spare rear axles
  • Transfer case

These are the kind of collection of parts you need for an overhaul of particular areas of the car; they’ve been built off my own or other people’s collection of parts (thanks Liam for a lot of your documentation!)

Front swivel hubs

This is a set of parts per side: if you’re overhauling left and right then you need two sets. Some fasteners are recommended not to reuse according to Suzuki specifications, but plenty of people do so at their own risk.

Kingpin shims

In generation 3 Jimnys it became quite common to shim the kingpins to add bearing preload to try to reduce death wobbles, including a genuine Suzuki kit to shim the kingpins. This was the subject of a service bulletin (Q-SN-004) which detailed the relevant troubleshooting steps for a steering wobble at particular speeds or when braking. While this is not something most generation 4 Jimny owners report with 3 door Jimnys, it has arisen again with the 5 door Jimnys.

The fix is relaively simple: in the case of insufficient bearing preload, there will be enough movement in the steering system that will induce a wobble. To fix this, the bearing preload is increased by placing shims under the middle of the kingpin bearings. The problem is this has become the mythical singular fix for any Jimny with a steering wobble (it isn’t: there’s a lot of things that can cause it!). The fix looks like the photo below: pretty damned simple, really.

Pic from ebay listing for a genuine Suzuki kingpin shim.

If it is something you need to do then there are aftermarket shim suppliers, and these aftermarket kits are probably the best option. However, I have done my best to dig into genuine part information for them just in case you’re after some genuine ones because that’s how you roll. These shims are 15 x 24 mm to go over the tip of the kingpin.

  • 0.5 mm thick shim: 09181-15158
  • 0.9 mm thick shim: 09181-15164
  • 1.1 mm thick shim: 09181-15172
  • 1.4 mm thick shim: 09181-15182

Note that you need to make sure you don’t have excessive bearing preload to minimise wear on the kingpins & also have good steering characteristics. The official Suzuki bulletin for the gen3 kingpin shimming measured the required effort to start the swivel hub steering: while straightforward it isn’t the easiest thing to measure.

Front CVs

CVs are integral to the axles and no good aftermarket source has been found (yet). Per side you should get all of the parts for a front swivel hub rebuild along with the relevant axle(s).

Left axle: 44102-78R00

Right axle: 44101-78R00

Each side needs 100 g of grease suitable for CV joints. You apply it to the housing where the back of the CV joint will end up. Factory this is Suzuki Super Grease ‘C’ which is a lithium based grease, but a generic moly grease will probably be the best bet: there’s nothing that indicates that the Suzuki grease is a super special blend for Jimny CVs or anything. If you want to use the factory grease then part number 99000-25030 is the grease.

Rear wheel bearings

A parts breakdown for these is also provided in the writeup of doing rear wheel bearings.

Many aftermarket parts sets do not include the seal inner protector, so sometimes it can be worth ordering a few of these to have on hand if you want to use generic wheel bearing sets.

Spare rear axles

If you want to make up a spare set of axles, you will need the following parts along with the rear wheel bearing parts.

Left: axle 44220-78820, backing plate 53160-78R00

Right: axle 44210-78820, backing plate 5311078R00

Then assembly with wheel bearings and you’ll have axles ready to go.

Transfer case

A couple of the transfer case bearings can be tricky to find, and not many have standard bearing equivalents to allow you to pick them up at any random bearing shop. Also note the 3 revisions to the manual transfer case chain and 2 revisions for the automatic transfer case chain.

Manual transmission gear shift linkages

The Gen4 Jimnys run a slightly interesting external set of linkages. These linkages are partly braced to the chassis and partly to the transmission assembly to increase shift feel and also reduce vibration from the transmission. This is noted in various presentations regarding the new Jimny in the launch materials provided to journalists and dealerships.

This translates to some external bushes and rods that are prone to getting dirt buildup depending on how you 4wd. Some of these bushes are nylon and aren’t listed as requiring lubrication, potentially they are self lubricating. Using grease on these might promote more dust pickup, but it might also help if you are having shifting problems as the car ages. Alternatively, just changing the shift bushings and rebuilding aspects of the external selector/shifting mechanisms might help.

Note that the ‘shifter control rod’ mount and linkages can be bought as a single part number (28102-77R00), however, if you are having shifting difficulties likely you just need some bushes and to clean the mechanism.

Shifter lever bushings are quite straightforwards: a large cup 28116-77R00 and a small bushing that goes into the control rod yoke is part 28151-84A01. Workshop manual does not say that it requires grease, but I’ve seen some from the factory that looked grease so who really knows.

Items to refresh the control rod area are:
