my life's work & passion for the Mechanical Arts is bringing back Discontinued Badly Needed part#'s
to the Land Cruiser Community
using ALL 100% TOYOTA parts in any way i can when ever and where ever possible ............
When i first became keenly aware that the problems associated with the 9/73-12/78 Fuel Door lock were rapidly becoming a huge deal
for a very dense population of the land cruiser community , i then Decided to take action ....
i made it one of many of what i do " missions " , to make is happen and get it done !
As of lately , i have been finding more and more Discontinued Land Cruiser Replacement Parts Needs , within TOYOTA itself ,
by simply re-purposing or re-assigning there current stated application , to well " OURS " ........
The Land Cruiser Community as whole , When these small but in some cases Significant Mircals Occur ,
I assign them , there Original Toyota Land cruiser Part# , but also , adding the Letter , R to the end after a Dash to of course
in this case we have 69058-69016, so NOW the land cruiser community has : 69058-69016-R
the R can stand for :
- Restored
- Refurbished
- Reassigned
- Reintroduced
- in this unique case maybe simply Resurrected is fitting
A few Key Features the 69058-69016-R has that put it the front of the possible YES list prior to my finally sourcing the
Extremely Killer Kool Filler Neck well in Pollox orange filler neck well are the 45 degree range of motion Paddle or Strike PAW ,
and the Spring Loaded PAW , that well has a good solid Hold in the rest position .
- Last but not least , and maybe more important then i currently realize at the moment ,
This Genuine Lock cylinder can be both Re-Keyed & Re-Coded to match your current factory Key Code in the ignition and both front Doors
using the 5 Digit Code Stamped on the passenger side front Door lock cylinder ....
: Please see the several TECH Photos Reference Examples Below to help those better understand whom are not familiar with this
TOYOTA standard identification method and practice .........
Today i called my Toyota Commercial Rep and inquired about Sourcing some of them , and he said only 18 on hand
in Country , well i scooped them ALL up , so i can meet any unforeseen word of mouth need from members
reaching out etc.....
