Body Lift Kit / Body Bushings - where to buy?

[fj user]

I need to replace missing body bushings on the 55, and at the same time, I'd like a little lift so the early hood can clear the 2F air cleaner assembly. Does anyone know where I can find a body lift kit? The only thing I've seen on the world wide web is this: http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/ToyotaLandcruiser.shtml
Anyone have experience with this seller or know who else could help?

FJ User,

That is who I bought from. I think most body mounts all come from the same source. He makes the lift blocks, good quality.

Thanks Ron! How long did it take to get them?

Good question! I don't remember it taking very long. Usually I'd remember a bad deal. Roger Brown, is the owner, nice to talk to.

Definitely not OEM, people have used hockey pucks in a pinch. My concern would be how they'd hold up long-term.

Are OE mounts still available? I am wanting to replace mine, but no lift needed. I want rubber, not poly.

No on OE, unless you find NOS but I've been looking for quite some time and haven't turned up anything.

I've not spoken to Roger Brown yet, but thinking he and Daystar are the only option.

I wound up with Daystars in a screwy classified acquisition and they appear to be smaller in diameter than the OEs, but don't know relevant, nor do I know how much they'll compress once installed.
