g'day all. dont really mean to be starting threads randomly but after watching that recent teq toolbox auction with some amazement i was reminded some questions i had long meant to throw at the mud specialists.
my friend has toolbox in a 60s stout that sorta led me to assume they were a stout item. they were in landcruisers also? anyone know for what period? the toolroll was supposed to go inside them? i know whereabouts of another i best go secure it and assemble some contents. i have a greasegun, coupla rusty spanners, toyota spark plug tool and damaged teq spanner clip. sourced from afar and of various ages!
i also have a query on old toyota jacks; i have 2 and they are both different. one has 09110-35011 cast below the teq emblem and "made in japan" cast into the base. the other has RK30 91100 cast below the teq emblem and a blank base but with more pronounced rounding at the base edge. the dimensions are roughly similar but the diamond pattern is noticably different. anyone have thoughts as to what period they belong? an opinion as to what jack is correct for fj25? or have any other thoughts or notice any other irregularities? any aussie input fwed?
my current project a stock old unpainted 64 fj45. toolbox yes? will look good anyway. and for what its worth my friends stout has markings of the first jack described but i am yet to compare them side by side.
