Fitment questions

Will a suspension leg from an older Caddy fit my newer one – does the generation matter?

Yes, generation matters significantly for the Caddy. The Mk3 ran from 2004 to 2015 (with a facelift around 2010), and the Mk4 ran from 2015 onwards – these two generations use different suspension geometry and the legs are not directly interchangeable across that 2015 boundary. Always confirm the exact generation with the breaker against your registration before ordering.

Does a suspension leg from a 2009 Caddy fit a 2012 Caddy?

Both a 2009 and a 2012 Caddy fall within the Mk3 generation (2004–2015), but 2010 brought a facelift which may have introduced running-gear changes, so a 2009 leg crossing that 2010 facelift point to a 2012 vehicle is not guaranteed to match. Confirm with the breaker using both registrations to be sure.

Does engine size affect which suspension leg I need on the Caddy?

It can do – heavier or more powerful engines sometimes mean uprated front suspension components to handle the extra load, and on a van like the Caddy the payload or GVW rating can also influence the suspension spec. Check the vehicle identification plate for the exact GVW, and provide both your engine size and payload rating when contacting a breaker.

Does the trim level affect which suspension leg fits – for example, does a Caddy Life or Maxi spec change anything?

Trim level alone – whether it's a standard Caddy, Caddy Life, or Maxi – does not change the suspension leg fitment, as running gear is determined by generation, engine, and load rating rather than trim. What can vary is the cosmetic condition or any ancillary brackets, so check those details match when comparing parts from different trim variants.

Does it matter whether I need the NS (nearside) or OS (offside) suspension leg on my Caddy?

Yes, NS and OS suspension legs are handed – the nearside (kerb side, left) and offside (driver side, right) are mirror images of each other and are not interchangeable. Always specify which side you need when contacting a breaker, and double-check the part they're supplying matches your side before committing to purchase.

I've heard some Caddies have stiffer or sport-tuned suspension – will those legs fit my standard van?

While it is possible that different damper or spring rate variants existed within a generation, we can't confirm exactly which configurations were fitted to which specific vehicles as fact. Route this question directly to the breaker, providing your full registration, so they can check the suspension spec on both the donor vehicle and yours before supplying a part.
