Fitment on a used wishbone 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:
Both years fall within the first-generation Leaf (ZE0/AZE0, 2010–2017), so there is a good chance the wishbone will interchange, but the ZE0 and AZE0 received running-gear revisions during that generation and the boundary between early and later build dates does not always align neatly with the calendar year. Name your exact registration when contacting the breaker so they can confirm the part number matches before you commit.
No – the first-generation Leaf ran from 2010 to 2017, and the second-generation (ZE1) launched in 2018 with a redesigned platform, so the front and rear subframe geometry changed significantly between the two. Always source a wishbone from the same generation as your car and confirm the exact part number with the breaker against your registration.
The Nissan Leaf's suspension geometry is not primarily determined by battery pack size in the way engine displacement affects brakes on a combustion car; both the 40 kWh and 62 kWh second-gen (ZE1, 2018-onwards) Leafs share the same basic platform. That said, the heavier e+ (62 kWh) variant may carry running-gear calibration differences, so confirm with the breaker against your specific registration to be certain the part matches.
Trim level does not affect wishbone fitment on the Leaf – the suspension geometry is the same across Visia, Acenta, N-Connecta, and Tekna variants within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as a slightly different state of the surrounding components depending on the donor car's specification, but the structural wishbone itself will be the same, so focus on generation and side (NS or OS) when sourcing.
The first-generation Leaf received an update around 2013 (the transition from ZE0 to AZE0 build), which brought platform refinements that could affect suspension components. You should name this as a boundary to be aware of: parts from a pre-2013 ZE0 car may not be a direct swap onto a post-2013 AZE0 car, so route this specific cross-boundary question to the breaker with your registration number and the donor car's registration to get a definitive answer.
Yes – wishbones are handed, meaning the nearside (NS, left/kerb side) and offside (OS, right/driver side) are not interchangeable. Always state NS or OS clearly when you contact the breaker, along with your registration and the generation of your Leaf, to make sure you receive the correct part.
