Ok, I assume these things, indent balls, are just rusted in place. I had to hit them with a punch several times to compress them so I could get the lever off. But, now how do I get them uncompressed?

I've tried hitting them with a punch...do you need a press to get them through?

Both indent-cup/sides (that you punched in) are held in place by shift mount. There is only a small spring in between the indent cup pins that shoots out (and lose) if you aren't careful-normally. They should just fall out.
keep soaking in penetrating fluid. At least it's out 
I was able to punch them through and are now sitting in penetrating fluid. I'll try and put them back in and see what happens.
do the 1972 Production Year folks know that they NOW have a 100% Period Correct TOYOTA Japan Spec. parts option on the Table

Matt, do you sell the female connector for this? I just got a new assembly from the dealer, but it doesn't have the connector like this one. Just loose bullet connectors.do the 1972 Production Year folks know that they NOW have a 100% Period Correct TOYOTA Japan Spec. parts option on the Table

matt
I wish I knew this before I bought the other one...lol. Do you know if anyone sells those 6 pin connectors?
cooler man
return the incorrect one and PM me ill help you out in any way i can
matt
Unfortunately I don't think I can return it...I've already tapped the threads for it. Unless the two parts can be broken up?
i don't know what you refer to ?
It's circled in this picture. They don't come tapped....at least mine didn't. It's a 10x1.25 thread pitch.
i have NEVER seen or heard of personally a TOYOTA Genuine part that had to be FIELD Threaded in any way ever by the consumer at any level ?
Are the ones you have threaded? If not, you'll see that a 10x1.25 bolt will not fit in that opening.

I've purchased 2 that were for early LC and were factory threaded.
I got mine from the dealer, but I guess some have them and some don't? I don't understand it either, but oh well....lol.
i can check later and report back
but like i said
TOYOTA NEVER sold any parts you had to or have to create Threads with a tap or die that i have ever heard of ?
that's MR T's JOB on the Assemblies line !
see ........
i told you its his Job , .
but he is a member of the VintageTEqParts.com SKUNK-WORKS Staff now , so ill cut him some slack ........
