I've been lucky enough to find the vent window hardware for my '67 FJ45LV the only issue I have is that one side is the correct one for the '67 and the other side is the older style.

I'd like to trade the older stye (formed steel) hardware for the newer style (cast) hardware. I believe I have the drivers side in the older style and need a newer style of the drivers side.

I'll sell it too ONLY if you have a ROCK SOLID lead on someone who WILL sell me the right one.
 
I have the older style set aside for you. I don't have an extra set of the cast style yet. '66 is the same as '67 with the cast pivot. I believe it is aluminum but I haven't confirmed that.

Pics....blue is '66/'67 style green is '64-'65 style

Just thought of another idea. I found a good set, both driver's and passenger's side, and I can send them to you to copy. You had mentioned when you were here that a lot of the little parts could be made locally without the expensive "tooling" setup fees.
 
Mike, I'll check on manufacturing costs once I get back. I'm in Calexico, CA right now and we'll be crossing into Mexico for the drive down today. Is there an interest in the vent window weatherstrip for the LV? I have a pretty good one for the passenger as well.

The older style that I have bolts to the leading edge of the door if I remember right, not the outside edge as shown in your picture. Is there two different styles?
 
Post a pic when you get home. I have never seen that.

On the LV vent weatherstrip....no there is no interest. Everyone enjoys paying 300.00 for rubber. ;) That was sarcasm. We really need another option for that part.
 
I've found both sides of these pivots so I'll offer up the older drivers side LV vent window (with the formed steel hinge like the second of Mike's pictures, NOT cast) in exchange for other LV parts needed from my list at https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=40358
