Mine got taking from my vehical when I was in High School back in 1985. I would love to get a replacement. Guess I'll look on E-Bay. Any other locations to find a replacement. I have everything else down to the little shop lamp. Would love to have it all back to stock. 1973 FJ40 - Second Owner since July of 1973. Manuf. March 1973.

the latest tool bag # for 80/08 - 84/10 was 09120-60050 now it is 09120-60100

Since this is looking at tools for the 40, can anyone tell me what these are for? Came with my 77 40.

Yeah the one piece is for the jack. Don't know about the other but it is not a crank handle. They are a long one piece rod. I don't have my pics on this computer but they the jack handle bracket came with an extra clip to hold them and the the bottle jack holder had a clip. If you look at your bottle jack holder you will see the bolt holes for the clip. The rode was inserted through a guide that attached to the front bumper.

There is a great video here someplace of someone starting a early LC with a crank handle.

FJ-Series OEM Tool Kit Inventory

Here's some additional information and details on tools and tool kits. This guide covers Land Cruiser tool kits through 1984, and includes criteria to help identify the kits and the tools included with each of the kits.

OEM Tool Kit Inventory

Using the previous information in this thread as a starting point, the inventory provides additional detail on the tools that make up these kits. The results are based on a survey of IH8Mud Forums/Classifieds, eBay listings, other internet resources, review of Toyota brochures and parts lists, and first-hand research. This is a work in progress, so please post suggestions, corrections, and additional information.

Tool kits are categorized by the size, material and marking of the tool box, roll or bag; there are seven basic styles:

• Metal Tool Box – probably not provided with U.S. Land Cruisers
• Large Tool Roll, 23mm – fits 2-piece, 23mm lug wrench
• Large Tool Roll, 21mm – fits 1-piece, 21mm lug wrench
• Medium Tool Roll, Canvas – same tools as medium vinyl roll
• Medium Tool Roll, Vinyl – same tools as medium canvas roll
• Zipper Bag, TEQ logo & Toyota Motor – fewer tools than tool rolls, cast jack handle
• Zipper Bag, Toyota Motor – fewer tools than tool rolls, stamped jack handle

The Zipper Bag, TEQ logo & Toyota Motor is broken down further to correspond with various tool changes; the designation refers to the bag logo and color of the jack handle:

• Zipper Bag, TEQ Yellow
• Zipper Bag, TEQ Brown

The guide attempts to provide sufficient description to identify specific tool variants, using objective criteria. Identifying which tool is in a particular kit is not always straightforward, some tool variations are subtle, and most tools are not marked with a part number.

There are many reasons why kits may not exactly match the guide. Changes to tools (like other parts changes) did not necessarily correspond to model year changes, and new stock was phased in as old stock was depleted. Given the number of individual tools in a kit, it is not unusual to find kits composed of various combinations of prior, current, and/or later tools. It is not uncommon for one or more tools in a kit to become lost and later be replaced. Some kits have been pieced together from one or more other kits and/or loose tools. Despite these limitations, I hope you will find this to be a useful reference.

Not being into the specific roll but wanting to put one together for a kit, which combination of tools makes the most sense for carrying on a daily basis?

This has been covered in many other threads here. Please, let's keep this one on topic.

I wasn't asking what you would put in your bag of tools, I was asking which of the factory tool kits had the preferred tools from someone that knows. Sorry it bothered you that I asked.
Nice job compiling the list, thanks.

I agree with Tim Stevens comment in the second post: "In general, the earlier the TLC tool kit, the better equipped it was. Earlier tools were often better in quality than later ones." However, given what the large tool rolls are being sold for these days, I wouldn't be keeping one in my daily driver.

nice job!!

Thanks, looking forward to your comments, corrections, and suggestions for improvement.

pretty sure it was Rick D. that had those reproduced a while back.

It was me. Guess I need to get back on the wagon now that I finally own another 40.

What do you think?

Hey Guys,

What do you think? It's a small project I've been working on with my wife & her Mom. Her Mom is a textile Guru & has some skills & knowledge. This one is basically an early prototype of the 60's tool roll. The color on this one is off, but she has actually tracked down a really great match for the real deal.

The big question is, if she made 10 or 15, would there be interest here in buying them? It would be just the replica roll, not the tools within them. It would also be a pretty faithful replica, with the correct weight waxed canvas, right size twill tape around the edge, etc... & the plastic pocket for the tool list, etc... The one thing that would likely be different is the buckle. I can't find the original buckles, so it would likely just be two D-rings.

The kicker is, to do this & do it with the right fabrics & such, they will run like $80 to 100 bucks each, at a volume of just 10 or 15 or so. Would anyone have any interest, or should I just have a couple made for my own use & call it a day?

I could also make a less expensive, "Every day" roll, that has the same format, but is just plain canvas & less authentic overall... What about that?

Thanks,
Abe

I think there would be interest... What I would do is start a thread with a poll and you'd find out how many would be interested I would think

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

I'd be in for one!

 

[OverLand Cruisers]

Me too!! For two!

 

[fhawk5]

I would buy 2. It would be smart to follow the advice and create a list of purchasers and amounts, and then determine your work load and cost. Even after you get the numbers for the moment, many others will buy when they find out they are available.

Good stuff, thanks for posting. Will get this info incorporated into the tool kit reference.
