Anyone have a source for body mounts for my 74 FJ55? Tried many of the usual places SOR, BTB, Daystar, CCOT.

Did a search, most postings were old. If not available, possibly recommend a similar 4x4 mount? Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.....Bill
 
Thanks everyone. Should have started with those who know. Appreciate the quick response.
 
At that price without hardware, I have no doubt there was little interest.
 
Think the 4Runner kit from Energy Suspension will work on a 1972 FJ55? Wondering if anyone ordered it and tried it out? Thanks Tom
 
My buddy Rich is going to give the 4Runner body mount kit a try for his ‘72 Pig.

Yes I recently called BTB and they said they are no longer available. Stated there was not enough demand so the supplier discontinued the item.

Scrolled through 12 pages of overpriced goods and never found body mounts for 55s. Used to love flipping through the old Man-A-Fre catalogs and drooling all over everything. This site just made me shake my head. We need to get with Kurt at Cruiser Outfitters and see what he might be able to come up with. It’s not like there’s ZERO demand for this product. This topic pops up multiple times a year just here on the forum.

Great question and not one we've tried. I know we've been able to mix match some other OE and ES mounts

I'll look into it when I get a minute.

I was also replying to the other half of your question in the thread that was deleted:

The FJ40 TRE kit will work on an FJ40 but you're paying for ends you won't use.

To fully replace the steering on an FJ55 you'll want the FJ55 specific 4pc kit.

And the drag-link which is only sold as an assembly with the tube out of Japan:

All stuff we have on the shelf here at Cruiser Outfitters. We also have full steering setups, all 3 tubes, 6 clamps and 6 ends all ready to install. We can ship as soon as today!
