    I just bought a Suzuki that I was told a 1997. Where do I locate the info on the truck that will indicate what it is?

    check seatbelt tags, it's usually about that year or maybe a year older?

    The belt tag indicates model :frustration:TX 521-P355 1998
    So I have a 1998, where can I find drive train information, etc?

    Also the wheels should have a date stamped on them somewhere.

    body #

    Look at the right front wheel well curve in the cab. The floor mat should have a U shaped cut in it. Under this cut will be a body #. Similar to DB51T-07C . Copy this # and do a web search, or contact me at newsavedone@hotmail.com, or post the # at this site and I will look it up for you.

    I work at RSM mini truck sales in Jackson Mi. The only true way to find out exactly what the year is is to look on a chart that we happen to have from Japan. the seat belt is not accrurate because the Japs use the seat belts until new rules come about then they change the seat belt and the tag.. look up www.usedminitrucks.com and any questions call and ask for steve. He will set you straight on the year so there will be no guessing and if ya ever need parts we ship directly from Japan, any part needed. I am in the process of modding my 99 Mitsu and hope to have pics posted soon. Hope that this helps..
