if you are looking for the later round bases, i may do that later, but it depends on how this goes. post up if you are interested in round (75 and later) or rectangular (74 and earlier).

i will need to get 10 commitments on rectangular at $30/set to get the rectanglar bases underway. if that goes well, i'll see if i can get one of my round bases measured up on cad and get a quote.


not sure what i'm talking about? see here https://forum.ih8mud.com/fj55-class...0-74-front-turn-signal-bases.html#post5122179
 
Ige; am in for 2 sets; for my 74 and another sets for the 69..........pigs are looking purty BUT the ones on the 74 are cracked and the ones on the 69 are gone............might even take 2 sets for each pig just in case!

question for you, I have a 1970 piggy that came to me in pieces, so I am unaware of many of the details of the truck, I always thought I could use the standard fj40 lights on my stock fenders? I have some stock OEM steel fenders on it, but I think the fenders are from a later year? The PO bought the OEM fenders new and sold them to me with the truck. Are these the lights that mount on the TOP of the fenders or the others I have seen that mount to the apron area? confused.....

the apron signals are a rare breed. they are on 67-early 69 models. later models are all on the fender. the fj40 signals are the same, but the bases are different since the fj40 has more of a pitch on the fender. some have shaved down the 40 bases to fit, but it usually ends up looking funky.
 
I'm sure I will need a set someday as well. I tried to remove one once and could tell it was going to break, so when it comes time to paint the piggy, they are history. Where do I sign up for them? Thanks!
 
I'm in, for my March 1970. PM me when/where to send money.

Oh and I am in the same boat as Guppy, in that my turn signals are from an FJ40, and in really bad shape, and I don't know the details of my truck. This is the base mount for the signals, so are the top parts still available? What are my options for getting close to OEM?

not sure if you can get new oem...cdan or a decent dealership can answer that question, but i think you still can get htem for 40s. 55s are disco. if not, you can get used from multiple places/folks parting, or aftermarket from ccot.
 
i gave the manufacturer the go ahead to get them made. i suspect a couple weeks as their machine is currently down for service. all who have replied here will get pms as soon as they are ready. after those here have been taken care of, any extras will be available to the gen public. limited run. as soon as these are gone, i'll look into the possibility of the late model round bases.
 
they're here.....

getting them marked now (they are sided, so there will be a small L or R on the underside)
