Removed from a 1970 FJ40, I remember this being removed from the passenger side. It Deflects Mud and debris from rear sill. In great shape with no rust thru. Needs blasted and paint. $40 plus shipping.

Interesting this is off a 1970 model. I've only seen on some 71s and all 72s. These were only on the right side and protected a tank that was part of emissions. I've collected a number of these year ago for the purpose of a splash guard for the rear corners. Best way to keep sill from rusting I keep clean and dry.

Never seen one till this 40 myself, it's a late 1970 FST.
 
Probably a early 71 model. All my came off hard tops. Got my first one twenty-two years ago. Then gathered the rest out of junk yards shortly after. These on models with the split back passenger's seat. Think the wheel well tank went MIA well before the rest of the emissions did. Which explains why they are so rare. Mid nineties I knew of a few junk yards that had cruiser that had been there for many years.
 
Thanks for the info @Living in the Past. It impressive how many year specific parts your aware of!

Being available for such a short Period do you believe my price is fair?

I tried to find an old listing for a reference of price but couldn't locate one here or eBay.
 
To be honest not sure what it's worth. To someone restoring probably more if you had the tank it protected. For me it was for using as splash guards and have a OEM look with stamped ribs in them. again a set would probably draw more interest. But only one was used you not going to find a set on a FJ40. I have four, enough to do two FJ40s. I found all mine one at a time.

I don't have the microfiche in front of me, but IIRC, they started in 2/70. That sticks in my mind as the transition point where they put the first incarnation of the fuel separator in the center of the front seat and reconfigured the fuel tank accordingly.

I never seen one in a pre 71 model but wouldn't surprise me. LCWizard had a 68 FJ55 with a smog pump. Not sure how common those were? My early 68 has plugs in the head for the air rail. If it had a pump would have been removed before 74 when I bought. Still haven't figured out the center front seat tank. Most 71s I've come across had the split back. But have seen a few pictures 71s seats that don't have it but do have the seat latch that changed with the 71 model.:meh:
 
I will take it. Haven't dealt with the locking hubs yet. Now I can write one check!
 
Just got this Edgar. What's my total?

Apologies, it was in my pile of spoken for boxed up parts. Lack of communication on my part.

I owed you one so not sure where we are at. I'll call your shop and leave a message with my info.
 
Not sure, but I think I still owe you for the Warn hubs?
