I have a couple and they're just rubber or plastic as far as I know.

Does that spare tire bumper have a steel clamshell molded inside it?
 
If that's the bumper for the spare tire holder there's already someone on here that makes it.......Trying to think of his name. I believe it's urethane, he contacted me when I posted about starting to make dashes. I believe he ended up finding somebody local to him to make them??? Digging back on the old dendrites and grey matter there.

He may sell restored land cruisers.....Gary???? Overton???

He had a picture posted where there were several 40's in the fall in his back yard. They all looked like they just came off the show room floor.

Does this ring a bell with anyone?
 
I think Overton is making the bumper that prevents the tire rack from scraping the ambi door.
The bumper that Honger is holding is to prevent the rack damaging the outer tub when the empty rack swings all the way around against the side of the truck.

Note that I can see or tell. Do you mean internal to the rubber? I guess I could cut it open. Mine is very well intact... however it is nearly hard as a rock and would be just as likely to dent my tub as the tire carrier itself.
 
There is coverage of this topic in the Parts Seldom Seen thread. This part is only used through '79, but if you read the thread there appears to be a substitute part Toyota used after '79: 68959-90301

Yeah, I already know about the "Seldom Seen" thread. Go back and re-read... the part number you reference is the newer version of the hinge protector for the ambulance doors.

51948-90300, the bumper for the spare rack, continued through 06/1980 per ToyoDIY. This part probably isn't a gold mine for your production purposes though. =)

I'd sure buy one!
 
I'm currently out of town but after checking my own photos it appears I have neither the rubber piece you're talking about nor the ambulance door hinge pads. I'll definitely pick up those plastic pieces right away! Man, what's wrong with the PO losing all these pieces off the truck?

The only solution for the missing rubber piece is to go ahead and make some and sell them... here, take my money! =)
(if you do have interest I'm happy to send you the intact sample I have)
 
Good find! How'd you find that obscure piece?

I've already got a "solution" of my own planned, otherwise I'd snag this up.
I was just looking for something else and those items popped up. Didn't think too much of it until I saw your post.

One of the PO's lost LOTS of stuff off mine and my bro's '76, yes stupid!
 
Anyone know if the left/driver side rear combo light for a '77 is NLA? I tried ordering on ToyotaPartsDeal.com but their image is oddly this:

Clearly the taillight off an older cruiser.

Part number is 81560-60111, which I've verified against the parts catalog as well as the right/passenger tail light which I just replaced.

I see Cruiser Corps offers an aftermarket replacement, but they say its for both sides meaning the weep holes must be missing. I get why that would be cheaper to manufacture, but I'd prefer a proper replacement.
