Part sourcing help needed - '70 fj40 sector shaft roller (1 Viewer)

[Fj40owen]

Thanks in advance for the assist here.
I am rebuilding my wife's 1970 spring green fj40 steering gearbox.
However, I cant seem to get a hold of a new Sector Shaft roller kit, which will be necessary for this job.
Toyota part: 04452-55010

Any chance a 40 enthusiest local or abroad happens to have this NOS?

Located in Colorado. Other ideas welcome.
thanks again!

Thanks, I have tried Yoshi parts and several other similar sources and they always reply with part not availible after attempting to source.

Mark showed a pic of a box of rollers he found on the shelf - not sure he will sell one without rebuilding the unit.

Might be time to consider a powering steering conversion that you can get parts for.

Got any local machining buddies, I think the parts could be made easy enough. Even heat treatment can done in small shops.

Left Mark a voice mail. I know he wont call me back, but worth a try anyway.
Good call. Really trying to keep original, but good idea on a machine shop.
I am pretty rural/remote so any reccomendations that have experience in this would be great
