The ones that were direct fit are discontinued from Toyota. Most of them will fit with a couple of bends, part outs, pick and pull, etc.
I put a rod from a 60 series being parted out on my 80 & it works great.

I was referring to Toyota, the ones we used to get were from the FJ62, but 4runner, Taco, etc.
The 80 series rod is 53451-60010, if you want to chase one?

I bought the OEM support rod, grommet and clip from Amayama. They had it in stock and I received it in about 3 weeks. With shipping, I was just under $40
Yup. This is what I used for awhile before pulling a rod from a 4Runner and bending it to fit. The mini vise grip worked great for the short term.
No.
I should of added , " the vise grip (mini) is not a long term solution "
but while acquiring many a Trade-in from used cars while working at the dealerships During T-TEN , this became necessary ,
my first use was a 86 Toyota Cressida and i never looked back

I also used vice grips for about a year. Just replaced the struts a month or two ago, and glad I did

Be careful with anything that locks the struts. Used to just closing the hood, if the strut is locked, it's very easy to bend the hood, have seen it a bunch of times.

It's not a north America part, the ones imported here all came with struts.

Why not just order new hood struts? A lot of time and effort put forth to reinventing the wheel here......
No kidding $21 bucks and done!
