After five years of taking the 40 apart, I've been putting it back together after having it painted. One part that hasn't been self explanatory is evading installation and I don't have documentation of it. Pretty sure it's from the engine bay - #2 Phillips for sizing. Thanks for the help!

Here is a pic of where I'm at in the process of putting it all back together.

The lip around the top and the scuffed paint make it appear, to me, that something sits on top of the piece. I checked the area underneath the coolant/windshield washer tanks but nothing lines up there.
 
I stripped all the brake lines off the troopy to update my 65 FJ45LP-B to dual circuit and disc brake up front. When I removed the cover they wasn't anything on attached it. Good chance I have the piece I talking about in one of the boxes of parts off that vehicle.
 
My FJ62 donor vehicle didn't have one, but my '84 FJ60 does. My '86 FJ60 didn't have one when I bought it, so I got one as part of my build.

I show the part ended on the 60 series 10/85 and never on the FJ62, at least in the US market. Which probably explains why your 86 doesn't have one unless build date was 10/85 or earlier.

Hi Steve I think this what you're looking for. Your 40 is way ahead of mine.

Guidance from around the world. Awesomeness! I think you guys have figured it out for me and it is much appreciated. Now if you could all come over and get me through reinstalling the windshield wipers and the window regulators/door handle mechanisms it would be perfect. As it is, the project has been like a big jigsaw puzzle that is invigorating and rewarding. Thanks all!!
