60 Body mounts are expensive!

[Foam]

Bodymounts for an 86 fj60 seem a bit pricy, after all they're not made of much..
Are there commonly used mounts off of other trucks that are cheaper, or mounts that are just made for general use? I would love to save a few bucks, got a tight pocket... Who can blame me though?

Just be glad they are still available at the moment because sure as Nagoya is in Honshu, they'll be unobtainium soon enough.

I guess I can get behind that. I was actually pretty surprised to find them being sold new. I just think that if I were to use some heavier, polyurethane ones that it might prolong the life of the truck. And if I were to modify the brackets to fit a different more common one, in the future if I have to replace one it won't cost as much.

May not be any cheaper, but Energy Suspension makes generic body mounts. Used a couple on my 40 restoration.

your rig is 30+ years old, most likely the mounts have never been replaced. If they need to be done in another 30 years, figure it out then.

Here's another thumbs up for Roger Brown at 4Crawler. Good product, no nonsense, fast delivery. I've bought 3 sets from him over the years. No problems.

Hi, Personally I'd go rubber mounts , these trucks have a rough enough ride. I've also replaced several sets of poly bushing that gave out after just a few years. Mike

I replaced my body mounts with poly mounts from 4Crawler 5 years ago. No signs of deterioration. Rubber body mounts aren't going to cushion your ride by any noticeable amount, but you're not wrong, rubber is more pliable.
