Don’t want to derail the thread too much. Just got in my levers today and I’m really impressed with the quality. I took the first steps to what I think is the way to get the old ones out, but I’m hitting some snags. Does this bracket need to come off to swap out the handles or do I need to take off the entire backing?

I’ve nearly stripped one of the screws already, these suckers are in there tight, so I’ve got it soaking in PB blaster for a minute.

Try taking the bracket off on the side and see if it will slide out. When i took mine out i didn’t recall that putting pressure on the bar. Might have to weld a nut on that one screw to get it out.

i ended up taking my seats fully apart and powder coating everting. its was $600 to PC it all satin black. 53 pieces!!!

Bump - sale closes 12/1/23 - i have 4 sets left at lower price point.
 
So sounds like there is a slight difference is some late model FJ62's - the main lever still fits however the seat side of the mechanism is a tad different. Can Mud Members please post up the stock FJ62 latch for a few reference photos? I am also willing to offer a set at reduced cost if someone will ship me the FJ62 bracket. Please PM me if you are willing to send the part to me for a few weeks.

Here are some photos from @joebattle1

Keep in mind I’m a September of 85 60 not a 62. I think a lot of small changes happened in August of 85.

Ahh i misunderstood. I designed this around fj60 Jan 1987 parts. Maybe the older years are what’s different. Even so i would like pictures/parts from an age range to solve this for good.
 
Bump - 17 total sets left. Get them while i have them.

Thanks,

Fwh
