Hi
Could you tell me if there are different discs for the later Jimny (mines a 2007).
I went to replace the discs and pads today, but the discs would not go over the hub.
I've looked online to see if there different sizes but as far as I can see all Jimnys have the same size discs.
The centre hole in the new discs are 107mm, but like a donkey I didn't measure the old disc center hole.
I've cleaned all the hub etc, but no way will the new disc fit.
Cheers
Richard

I can confirm that the center hole in my disc is 108.5mm hence the new discs wont fit being 107mm.
it was bugging me so much I just went out and whipped the disc off again
I bet I'll have to fit genuine discs knowing my luck :evil:

They are different sizes.
Early Jimny discs up to VIN 203804 have 107mm diameter holes.
From VIN 203804 onwards the holes are 108.3 mm
Therefore a new series disc will fit an old car, but an old series disc will not fit a new car.
