FJ45LV Help! (1 Viewer)

[Fuentesfranko]

I've been tirelessly and unsuccessfully looking for a Tire holder spindle assembly for my 1966 FJ45LV

I've almost given up on finding an original one, so here's my question:

Would anyone be willing to lend me their tire holder assembly for a few days so I can have someone replicate it? I could give you a deposit so you know you're getting it back, and of course I'd pay for insured shipping both ways. I'm located in Connecticut.

I'd really appreciate it if someone can help out a desperate fellow LV'er out.

I have one, let me dig it out. I may be able to do a run of reproductions.

Wow! That would be amazing. If you decide to make reproductions I'll definitely be interested in one. Thanks so much!

Francisco,
Went looking yesterday for my windshield wiper arms and found an extra spare tire bracket I would be willing to part with. It is missing the nut but looks like that may be the easiest part to fab? Feeling some good LV karma as I just started driving mine on its shake down cruise. PM me.

that is a good looking mount, any chance you could give me a hole to hole measurement of the 4 bolt pattern and a height from the desk to the face the bolt is welded to?

 

[JLawson]

I measured two of these that i have and the spread on the bolts is 9.75" and 9.875" x 1" . The height off the desk is 5.375"
