WTB Front passenger sidemarker

logger · 08-30-09, 04:22 PM

For some reason my computer isn't recognizing my camera, so i couldn't upload the missing piece. I need a passenger side front sidemarker with the metal, i still have the gasket but would purchase the complete set(gasket,plastic,metal). Thanks for your help.

I assume you have a '75 or earlier FJ55?

logger · 08-30-09, 06:46 PM

Yes, nov. 69.

Does anyone know a parts supplier that may carry front side markers for a 69 pig? Or if the aftermarket fj40 front side markers that SOR carries would fit a pig.

The two things that particularly vary are the wire connectors and the rubber gasket. Connectors can easily be modified to work one way or another and/or found and the gasket you have used in place of another. (Gaskets on dif. models years have dif. pitch or slopes.) Most early Toy pickups, luv trucks etc have a similar light, but you would need to keep and use your original gasket. I can't recall I may have some from my 7/70 but if so the rubber is likely dry/brittle.

I have the rubber, it is brittle but intact. The light and the electrical still work. The lens and the metal retaining piece just rattled off along the way. Hoping there is one out there somewhere.

Probably have a couple somewhere. I will look tomorrow.

Contact Kina at Northcountrylandcruisers.com or .net (don't remember) His MUD handle is cruiserland. He's got 4-5 parts pigs at his place in NH

Anybody have this front sidemarker lense and metal retaining piece? I appreciate the leads, but nothing has worked out yet.

If I end up with a new set of front fenders on my '55 I'll have a pair of those available. I currently have old fenders on my truck so those lights are doing "hole filling" duty right now.

How about a close pic and a Koito number off the one on the other side?

Pighead · 09-21-09, 04:28 PM

Um, aren't those lights just the same as the FJ40? With a slightly different rubber gasket? And were used on a gazillion other Toyota products....
Pighead gots the stuff to make one of those, in the spares pile. But I don't see the problem in finding one closer to you.
