Fitment on a used rear cross member varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
The G-Class has been built on the W463 platform since 1989, but Mercedes carried out a significant structural redesign for the thoroughly updated W463A generation launched in 2018, and a rear cross member from the pre-2018 W463 is very unlikely to be a straight swap into a post-2018 car. If your parts are both from the same pre-2018 or both from the same post-2018 generation, fitment is more plausible, but you should still confirm the exact part numbers with the breaker against your registration before buying.
No — engine choice and trim level, including AMG Line, AMG 63 or standard specification, do not change the rear cross member because it is a structural chassis component tied to the platform and body, not the drivetrain or equipment level. You may find cosmetic differences around the rear end between trim grades, but the cross member itself is unaffected. Tell the breaker your registration and generation rather than your engine or trim, and that is all they should need.
The standard production G-Class is a five-door wagon, and that is the body style the vast majority of breakers in the UK will hold stock for. The rear cross member is specific to the body structure, so if you have a non-standard or limited-run variant, confirm the exact body configuration with the breaker against your registration to make sure the part matches.
These two cars sit on different generations: the 2017 car is the long-running pre-facelift W463 (1989–2018), while the 2019 car is the heavily redesigned W463A that arrived in 2018 with a new body structure. Crossing that 2018 boundary for a structural component like the rear cross member is a significant risk, so you should treat them as incompatible until the breaker has confirmed interchangeability against both registrations.
Engine variant does not affect the rear cross member — the G350d and G500 share the same body structure within each generation, so the part should be the same regardless of which engine is fitted. Focus your conversation with the breaker on the generation (pre-2018 W463 or post-2018 W463A) and your registration number, and the engine specification can be set aside entirely.
Both years fall within the long-running pre-2018 W463 generation, so on paper they share the same platform and the cross member should be compatible. However, Mercedes made various detail changes to the W463 body over its exceptionally long production run, and whether any of those affected the rear cross member specifically is something you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations rather than assume.
