When it comes to off-roading, Suzuki Jimny drivers need components that can stand up to the challenges of rough terrain without sacrificing vehicle performance. At Des Sol, we’ve developed two high-strength radial arm designs tailored specifically for the needs of off-road enthusiasts, offering superior durability and precision engineering.
OEM Replacement Radial Arm: Strength Where It’s Needed
The Des Sol OEM Replacement Radial Arm is designed to be a direct upgrade for the original cast iron arm found in the Jimny. While the OEM cast iron arm is strong, it can fail under repeated exposure to the stresses of serious off-roading. That’s where our high-strength version comes in.
Manufactured from Supaform S355MC steel, this arm offers enhanced durability, making it a superior choice for drivers who demand more from their vehicle. The material provides increased strength and resistance to cracking, ensuring that even under heavy load or tough conditions, the radial arm will perform reliably.
This replacement arm is ideal for Jimny owners who want a robust, long-lasting solution without changing the vehicle’s geometry. It offers a seamless fit and retains the factory ride and handling characteristics.
3° Castor-Corrected Radial Arm: Optimised for Lifted Jimnys
For Jimny drivers who’ve lifted their vehicles for more off-road capability, our 3° Castor-Corrected Radial Arm is the perfect solution. When you install a 50mm to 100mm lift on a Jimny, the change in suspension geometry can affect handling and lead to clearance issues. This is where our castor-corrected arm shines.
By incorporating a 3° offset, this design repositions the front axle to maintain proper alignment and castor angles, ensuring the Jimny retains its handling stability and preventing that “vague” steering feel that can occur with suspension lifts. Additionally, the 15mm longer arm helps push the differential forward, providing the clearance needed for larger tyres, such as 235s or 31” tyres, without the worry of wheel arch interference. For off-roaders who demand precision handling and proper alignment, this arm is essential when modifying a Jimny’s suspension.

Why Des Sol Radial Arms?
We’ve observed that many 5-door Jimny radial arms have been bent , often with extremely low mileage and minimal time spent off-road. This highlights the importance of upgrading to our heavy-duty arms to prevent potential failures. Both of our radial arm designs are manufactured from Supaform S355MC steel, a high-yield strength material engineered to withstand the toughest conditions. Whether you’re replacing a failed OEM arm or upgrading to accommodate a lift, you can trust that Des Sol’s radial arms will deliver the durability and performance needed for off-road adventures.
