Wanted FJ45LV door-side latches (1 Viewer)

I'm starting to slowly piece the FJ28 together now, and doing some inventory of parts that I still need. I've been able to get almost everything that the FJ45LV shared, but I'm still looking for a set of the door-side mechanisms. Every one of them was missing from the FJ28. If anybody has a set they'd be willing to spare, or even one or two hopefully I can piece all 4 together.

I do have a back-up plan with some FJ55 hardware that I think we can make work, but obviously the "real deal" would be a better way to go if I can find it.

EDIT: deleted the incorrect sketch, see post 4 below for correct highlight

Let me have a look thru my LV stuff.....I have my old ones I think(I had NOS latches for my truck.....amazing, I know).....I should have the ones I took off and I have 2 random LV doors that I believe have the latches in them. Just need to make sure the other LV I have has all 4.....haven't done an inventory on that truck yet

Awesome! I really thought this was a long shot finding these (like any unique-to-45LV part) but I would be thrilled if I actually got them. It’s painful to put a part in there i know doesn’t belong. And the mounting holes are identical to the holes in the doors on my 66 45LV so I’m sure that’s what belongs there. Keep me posted!

I just realized I highlighted the wrong part in the sketch. The photo is correct. Adding the correct highlighted sketch here
