2007 and 2015 parts swap - Toyota Yaris Forums

yak · 01-06-2016, 08:02 PM

G'day Yoda freaks;
I'm diving a 2007 5dr. hatch
I came across some 2015s with 8 - 10kms on 'em...oh yeah
I'm wondering if all suspension & running gear parts are a bolt in swap

cheers

Good news;
I just installed Front & Rear suspension
It bolts up perfectly...07 to 15 no problem, wont work for 05 fronts

Interesting.

Was your interest in the 15's suspension based on it just being newer?

Did you do it for the better handling characteristics of the newer car? I wonder if what you wanted to achieve could have been done by just installing the bushings and other such items from the '15, and not the suspension in its entirety.
