Fitment questions

Does the Nissan Cabstar actually have a sill?

Yes, the Cabstar has structural sills running along the base of the cab between the front and rear wheel arches — these are the steel sections that form the lower edge of the cab body on each side. They are a genuine, replaceable body panel and are a common rot-prone area on older examples. If you are searching for a used replacement, you will find them listed by breakers as cab sills or step sills.

Will a sill from an older F24-generation Cabstar fit a newer one?

The Cabstar ran on the F24 platform from around 2006 through to the mid-2010s, with a facelift introduced around 2012, so there are two distinct pressing generations within that span. Sills within the same pre-facelift or post-facelift period are likely to correspond, but whether a pre-2012 sill crosses cleanly to a post-2012 cab is uncertain and you should confirm this with the breaker against your exact registration. Do not assume cross-facelift fitment without verification.

Does wheelbase matter when buying a used Cabstar sill?

For the sill itself — which runs along the base of the cab rather than the load body — wheelbase generally does not affect fitment, as the cab structure is shared across short-wheelbase and long-wheelbase variants. However, it is worth confirming with the breaker, as some extended-cab configurations could alter the rear cab panel geometry. Stick to matching the generation and facelift status first.

Does it matter whether my Cabstar has barn doors or a tailgate when sourcing a sill?

No — the sill is part of the cab structure and is unaffected by the rear load-body door arrangement, whether your truck has barn doors or a tailgate. These are completely separate sections of the vehicle and the sill pressing will be the same regardless. Focus on matching the cab generation instead.

Does engine size or trim level affect which sill I need for my Cabstar?

No — engine choice and trim level have no bearing on sill fitment on the Cabstar, as the cab body structure is shared across all engine and specification variants. A 3.0-litre diesel and a 2.5-litre diesel of the same generation will use the same sill. Buy with confidence on that point, and concentrate on matching the cab generation and facelift period correctly.

I need the NS sill for my Cabstar — is that the same pressing as the OS?

The nearside and offside sills are mirror-image pressings and are not interchangeable with each other, so make sure you specify NS (nearside, kerb side) or OS (offside, driver's side) clearly when requesting a quote from a breaker. Most breakers will ask, but confirming upfront avoids delays. Prices and availability can differ between sides depending on which tends to suffer more corrosion damage on salvage vehicles.
