The Jimny short-wheelbase geometry puts the lower body close to trail damage. Rocker panels sit at the height where rocks, brush, and debris strike, while lifted suspension and larger tires make cabin entry less natural. The OEM side trim seals the body; it does not solve either use problem.
The Salado Side Bar Kit treats the side body as one integrated protection and access zone. The tubular bar provides a physical step for lifted builds, while the rocker panel plate shields the lower body from strike and abrasion. The contour follows the Jimny body curvature, avoiding generic bolt-on geometry. Separate 3-door and 5-door versions preserve proportion across the different wheelbases.
Two-Part Assembly
Tubular side bar plus rocker panel protection — designed as one system. Step pad on the bar, structural shield on the panel.
Body-Flush Contour
The side bar contour follows the curvature of the body — flush, deliberate fit. Not bolt-on aftermarket geometry.
3-Door + 5-Door Compatible
Engineered for both Jimny variants. The 5-door version extends to span the longer wheelbase. Choose your variant at order.
