Great little video! Thanks for sharing.
Very little gets the inner child in me tingling.....that video did. Thanks for sharing.
Just watched the video and got excited as I need 2 new new window regulators for my BJ42.
I looked it up on Amayama and they wanted over $1000 just for one.
I spoke to my local Toyota dealer and they can order them. $1500 each! I cant justify $3k to get rid of a slight rattle.
Its for the vented window so i understand its rarer. Im happy to pay extra, even a premium for these parts but that's out of control money.

If it's just a rattle you're trying to fix, I would start by replacing the inner and outer felts. They're only like $50 for the pair ($100 to do both doors). Maybe they're a little less for the vented windows.
Yes, would start there for sure. Night and day difference when i knocked this out
Try Goodstate on ebay....he usually includes the shipping cost in the price.. from Australia...you get options of either genuine parts or sometimes after market.
And? Also the Toyota heritage glass looks green. I search for a white one with a stamp.bikersmurf: you're absolutely right, just need a pattern (or is it templet?)
otherwise no success so far, only waiting for the japanese rabbit to reply to my inquiry...
I've just tried xexpress from Belgium unfortunately no luck for the glass. I'll try Toyota dealers now with the heritage part but that glass looks green. I have all white glasses.
Just to inform. No Chance for that Windshield via Gazoo. They are out of stock. So this is starting to be a real pain for me. Im sure the swiss authority also wants to see a original glass.
Ah and the first part of the exhaust pipe is 1900 CHF, 2'455.63 USD... Ehm idk. I think ill wrap my self built exhaust system with a wrapper instead of that double walled gold exhaust.

If you mean the 1/79+ header pipe for the non US market it is available on eBay here the US. Current price is $819 USD. It used to be lower around $750. Not sure if the tariffs are the reason. They have been on eBay for years. Can't think that many are selling and price went up for seller's replacement cost. Either way more than I'm willing to pay for a couple feet of bent with flanges on the end.

My windshield was milky, really bad. When I started looking for one I found that many companies stopped carrying them because they would break in shipping. I had a local guy that has been doing glass for decades use my old one as a template and cut me a new one.
However, if that is not an option for you, I do not know what shipping to you would cost but BTB sells them. Here is a link for you:

I always have a problem with a vendor who has the one size fits all approach. 58-75 had three different sizes windshields. My guess it's. The 66 to 74 model. Mid 65 the vent in the bottom of the windshield went away. That made the windshield glass larger. 1/75 the wiper motor moved to the bottom of the windshield with the linkage inside the frame. Size of the glass changed again. Notice since Marv past away SOR also lists early FJ40 parts back to 1958 that were different for the FJ25 than the FJ40. Would expect this from a company like JC Whitney not a Land Cruiser specifically business.
Up to mid 65 there was a vent that opened on the bottom of the windshield frame. When the vent moved to the center of the cowl the windshield frame enlarged where the vent use to be. 75 is a different wiper with a motor on the bottom. The frame got thicker at the bottom for motor cover and wiper linkage. The 74 show to 1/75 but I have never seen a 1/75 with the wipers on top of the windshield.had a friend who bought one of the first 75 to land in the LA area. Believe it was still January. BTB is only showing one part number that ifor 58 to75 which is not true. 75 until the end of production in 4/86 should be the same.
Thanks but thats not OEM and i can also let it cut by my local car glass guy. From what i understood so far is that the swiss vehicle inspection wants to see the stamp on that glass. Thats why i am worried here.My windshield was milky, really bad. When I started looking for one I found that many companies stopped carrying them because they would break in shipping. I had a local guy that has been doing glass for decades use my old one as a template and cut me a new one.

About 6 or 7 years ago while living in southern Nevada I had the windshield replaced by Google Maps - https://maps.app.goo.gl/jgmLL3aNtU7pedtG9 and the store manager told me that they cut the glass for BTB. So they just have glass cut locally it’s not anything special

Ah, OK. You might try Classic Cruisers or BTB to see if they have one in good shape on one of their donor vehicles.
