All I need to get the wheels on and be able to move the chassis is 1 bolt. 1 - M7 x1.25 thread size, approx 5/8 in long. I suspect it's a JIS bolt because all the hardware stores have M6 and M8, no M7, and they have 1.0 but only with M6 and 1.25 only with M8. I tried to make it to my local Toyota Parts store by 4:55 on Friday, and as I sat in traffic, I decided bad timing. So to answer the question: "Have I tried the Toyota parts store?" No. I haven't. It's a nightmare trying to get that guy to look up a part for me that he can make money on, let alone a bolt worth $1.99.
Anyway, does anyone have resources where I can find this bolt? It holds the brake line coupler to the back of the drum brake on the front driver side of a 1969 FJ40.
Next question I have is: Where the coupler holds the brake line going to both cylinders, there are copper washers on the bolts that hold the lines to the couplers. I lost one. Can I get replacements?
How many are there supposed to be on each cylinder/bolt/coupler connection?
I have seen kits on SOR or CCOT but they include the coupler, washers, fitting, and they're close to $80 I think. I just want to find some replacement copper washers. Any help would be appreciated. Y'all are great!
