Has anyone else experienced their Jimny jumping and sliding sideways (rear wheels) when encountering potholes or bumps? I’ve been using mine for the past 7 months, but I’ve only noticed this issue in the last month. Could it be due to changes in my driving style over time? I’m curious to hear others’ experiences and thoughts on this matter. Additionally, should I visit the service center to check if any suspension-related components are loose?"

What tyres are you using? If on stock tyres then this behavior is quite apparent and unnerving. The car changes line all of a sudden due to inadequate grip, it also tends to follow the road contours and dips in the road and needs constant steering correction to keep it going straight.
Upgraded tyres, especially 225/70 R15 removed this problem completely.

Think this is due to solid axle.

my 2009 wagon r had the same issue, except when psi is lower than recommended. Doubt it is due to axle, more to do with tyre grip i guess. (not an expert though 
)

yes, 225 help this problem but its not hundred percent solved ,rear part of the jimmy is still unpredictable on speed bumps or potholes while on high speed .I think as I have researched its about pan hard as it controls the lateral movement and side ways motion of the axle , keen to know reviews of people having performance/ aftermarket pan hard .
