Used Nissan Navara Wishbone

The Navara D40 ran from 2005 to 2015, with a facelift arriving around 2010 that brought revised front-end styling and some mechanical updates. Wishbones within the same pre-facelift (2005–2010) or post-facelift (2010–2015) period are generally considered a match, but whether a wishbone crosses that 2010 facelift boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as subtle geometry or mounting changes can catch you out. Always tell the breaker your exact reg so they can check their vehicle against yours.

The D23 (also sold as the NP300 Navara) launched in the UK in 2016 and is a completely different generation to the D40, with a new platform and independent rear suspension replacing the D40's solid rear axle setup. Wishbones are not interchangeable between these two generations, so make sure any quote you receive specifies D40 or D23 to match your vehicle. Give the breaker your registration to avoid any mix-up.

For the Navara, the wishbone itself is primarily determined by the generation (D40 or D23) and the side (NS nearside or OS offside) rather than engine size. That said, if your vehicle has a heavier-duty suspension setup associated with a particular powertrain or payload configuration, it is worth mentioning your engine to the breaker as a cross-check, because running gear can vary with vehicle weight. Always quote your registration so the breaker can verify the correct part.

Trim level does not affect wishbone fitment on the Navara — the suspension geometry is the same across Visia, Acenta, Tekna, and N-Guard variants within the same generation. You may find that parts pulled from a higher-spec donor vehicle come with different-condition ancillaries or brackets, but the wishbone itself will be the same item. Confirm generation and side (NS or OS) with your breaker and you should be fine.

A 2013 Navara sits in the post-facelift D40 period (2010–2015), so a wishbone from a 2012 or 2014 D40 is likely compatible, as all three fall within the same facelift window. Make sure to specify the side you need — nearside (NS) or offside (OS) — as left and right wishbones are not interchangeable. Share your registration with the breaker so they can confirm against the actual donor vehicle before you commit.

Body style — double cab versus king cab — does not affect the front wishbone, as the suspension components are shared across cab configurations within the same generation. The key details to get right are the generation (D40 2005–2015 or D23 2016 onwards), the side (NS nearside or OS offside), and your registration number so the breaker can do a proper check. Never assume fitment solely on body style.
