1975 FJ40 Windshield Weatherstrip Install

[Rick Carroll]

HI Guys, I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. After accumulating parts for a year its time to put my FJ back together after a new paint job. Most of it has gone pretty well but the windshield has me stumped. The seal I bought (I believe from Lake Land Toyota) is #56121-60011 and doesn't look right plus I think it is suppose to be 2 part. Some sites show a one piece seal others two. Does anyone know what is correct for a 1975? There are 3 slits in the seal. Top and bottom are small/thin and a large slit (I think for a lock) on one side. I put it on the glass using one of the thin slits and its way oversize. I've watched as many videos and read as much as I can find but haven't seen a real close up of how the seal goes on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

OK Here is what I've found out so far. The 60011 is for 1974 and earlier and requires a separate seal lock. The 56121-90301 is for 1975 and above but some sites list it as 1976 and above. It looks like this doesn't need the seal lock but I'm still checking. As I find out info I'll keep posting so it can help someone in the future going thru the same ordeal.
