Reassembling a 1979 Hardtop - Does anyone know where to source these rubber seals? (1 Viewer)

[adamdsgn]

Disassembled the hardtop from my '79 to have the headliner replaced, replace the top seal, drill out and retap some rusted/busted bolts, and just give it an al around cleaning, etc.

The rear cross member (over the ambulance doors) has these two rubber seals (one on either side) that go in between the crossmember and the left and ride sides. They're held on with 3 (each) small flat-headed pop-in clips.

Anyone know where to source the rubber seals from (cause these things are shot)? I can probably reuse the clips or even use a gasket adhesive to adhere the seals. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am betting City Racer has them. That's where I would go.

I ordered the top seal for the cap from them last week and sent them a message (haven't heard back yet) about the two pieces because I didn't see them on their website.

This will be my last resort, but wanted to see if anyone had reproduced them first.

DANG! Can't believe Toyota part sites still sell these.

No doubt; it's easier for me to get parts for my 1977 FJ40 than my 1995 FJZ80.

Consider the 80 series was produced from 1990-1997 in a single body style. While the 40 series was produced from 1961 until early 1986 in multiple versionbs. 40 series was the main model Toyota made during that time. World wide the 70 series was main model produced and sold around the world.

I replied to your email, but here it is.

Toyota parts sites list it but it doesn't necessarily mean they have stock. I can tell you it took over 6 months for Toyota to supply me the clips on a special order.
