Tailgate Junction Block

[RUSH55]

Just saw that Cruiser Corps is carrying the junction blocks for the 55 tailgate window motor. $89. Seems steep - thought the OEM units through Toyota were around $50.(?)

if you don't need OEM looks, can get the same function for $10.

Seems steep

Why not use a quality junction block @$11.00 if we’re not doing correct restorations?

It is steep!!!

Some stuff on OEM doesn’t always make sense. Toyota pricing on certain items always puzzle us and there have been some recent updates on pricing increases from them as well.

NAPA part #3081 was my replacement ten years ago and still in great shape...some sort of plastic base rather than fiber. A bit shorter than stock but an extra hole in the mounting base fixed that. Around $9 back then.

@Cruiser Corps , I was actually pretty happy to see that you guys were carrying these! You’re selection of replacement parts is outstanding!

Hey now, factory spec sheet builds only!
With minor (minor) deviations.

I didn't like how the OEM block warped and deteriorated over time, aftermarket much better.

Here's a crappy picture of mine, hoping nobody pulls the cover off and calls me out for non-oem parts.

The junction block on your rig is likely not the first variation they'll notice!

Keep in mind that if you guys are looking for used stuff that we usually have around 50-60 trucks that we are parting from.

I think I have about a dozen 55s currently in the salvage building.
