diesel grill plate for FJ40

benhoffa · 12-06-06, 08:12 AM

I am looking for a Toyota Diesel grill plate for a '78 FJ40. I just bought it in the Dominican Republic and just need some "technical" pieces. Also looking for the 4wd emblem for the back. Any ideas?

Good luck on the diesel badge...I've started looking and they are pretty much non-existant in the US in terms of dealers getting them. I have a line on one from Canada eh, but other than that...used ebay?

We can still get them here in Canada from the dealer...
I just got a new one for a gift for my resto.
They are expensive new, I seem to recall around $60

If you're not concerned about how it looks, I've got my old one around here someplace, otherwise I could offer to pick up a new one at the dealer and ship it to you.

The look is not the biggest concern. I just want to get it back to original look. Let me know if want to sell the older part.

I also have the 4WD emblem, and that one for sure I know where it is...where are you located?

I live in the Dominican Republic but I use a Florida MAil service. There is a guy done here that restores FJ/BJ 40's. But He doesn't usually top it off with emblems
