Here it is:
91619-61235
I had my FJ60 selected on Toyotapartsdeal.com
Probably the same and I just selected the wrong bolt. I dont know how you guys memorize these parts numbers.

For most of them I have to look them up, but I've gotten pretty quick with that. The parts counter guys at American Toyota like it when I show up with current part numbers to order.
I bought a couple of 70mm long M12 x 1.25 generic bolts. I cut their heads off. I should have also used a cut-off wheel for turning them with a 'flat head' screw driver. I put them in the top of the bell housing to align / guide the transmission to the pilot bearing. Then I inserted two Toyota bolts, loosely, then replaced the guide-studs with the Toyota bolts. It keeps your threads from getting all chewed up from the gear boxes wanting to rotate at the time of installation. - Learned it from Mud.
Usually socket cap screws are really hard and won't flex/stretch to hold as much torque as the OEM ones. Also, they might be more fatigue prone. These four bolts have a major safety role in keeping the gearboxes where they are supposed to be.

They also strip heads much more easily. That's why im not a fan of the later oil pain and tranny drain plugs. They have magnets though. That's kinda nice i guess.

Thanks again forall the info guys !! It’s been a process as you all know andhearing from you guys is much better then trial and error. I already received all the bolts for the clutch and flywheel as well as the bolts to marry the motor and trans together from specter. But I’m glad you turned me on to this site as well very helpful !

Good luck @74fj40Oregon. Keep updating as you go and don't be stingy about sharing pics.
Just out of curiosity, and maybe you covered this, but what was the reason for the swap in the first place?

Oh, btw, I'm watching this closely because I have a 4/74 with a 2F in the garage that knows where it wants to go
FWIW, I plan to pull my wire harness and send off to Coolerman (Cruiser Wiring Guru) for harness rebuild and rewire for a 2F.
Cheers.

So I bought the fj and the motor was seized up. I filled it up with marvel and got things to turn and planned to rebuild it. My machinist told me if I could find a 2f to rebuild would be more available parts and better motor. So I got on craigs and found everything you see and new flowmaster exhaust for 1k in Seattle, made the drive the next day haha. guy was pulling it out of his because he was swapping for small block and a auto because of leg problems. Ill be sure to keep you guys informed as you all have been very helpful.

I have no clue what shape my wiring is in to be honest. was contemplating just getting a pain free wire kit ? any thoughts. Or just run what I got and see if everything is working ?

If you want to rewire the entire vehicle, you should get a model-year correct harness from coolerman (a mud member) or have him repair yours as Spike Strip suggests. Painless harnesses are notoriously lacking and incorrect.
I would recommend just installing the few things your wiring is lacking and repairing those few areas of normal wear, degradation, and monkeying around that previous owners have done. You probably don't have too much to do, you'll learn more, and you will be saving original wiring that is perfectly fine. Going through each circuit and verifying grounds solves 99% of electrical problems.
