No Silly Questions here!
Those are a recent purchase from a member here, top plate front triangles for the front bumper. They attach to the front of the frame so you can attach the stock OEM bumper. Mine were missing from the previous owner changing out for a "custom" (homemade) bumper.
Glad to be of help

@gerg’s kit. Same one you have if I remember right? Still working to make the air cleaner work but otherwise a super easy fit.
Yes right on! It's a great kit I wasnt sure his kits look alot diff then 3 years ago when I got mine! You're gonna love it.
If the Architect thing doesn't work out, you have a career as a tubing bender waiting for you.
Got the sun visors cut and test fit. Used dark smoky plexiglass and tried to match the general shape of the original, bit this one is longer... 5.25 x 17 inches, but the angle on the edge is the same. Also had to cut the posts to shorten them 1/2 an inch and get an angle that would clear the roll bar when I want them to cover the door window. Am going to wait until the fj is painted and ready before peeling the protective paper off them and adding better hardware. Added a picture of a scrap chunk of the plexiglass with the paper off and held up to a led light so that you all could see the color. Cheers!

I was thinking about something similar. Nice work.
Thanks Dizzy. Looked online and found cheap ones that were made cheaply/poorly and for a Jeep. Also noticed that Icon sells something similar for the FJ, but they are asking 450 dollars. I am in for about 30 bucks total for mine.... plus they are one of a kind

Sold the distributor here on MUD, so it's time to install the new aftermarket electronic distributor with the Celica signal generator and the Trollhole vacuum advancer. If it checks out I'll be selling it also (cheap
) - would make a great trail spare.
Does that Celica signal generator have the same air gap as the Landcruiser one 0.2-0.4mm?Sold the distributor here on MUD, so it's time to install the new aftermarket electronic distributor with the Celica signal generator and the Trollhole vacuum advancer.

Per one of the distributor experts here on MUD, the technical specs are the same - it's just the specifics of the grommet where the wires pass through the distributor housing. That signal generator is a direct fit to the stationary plate on the '78 through '80 and on the '81 through '87 big cap 2F distributors. For this particular aftermarket electronic distributor, the U-shaped opening in the housing is the same as in the Celica distributor housing.
I made the perilous journey out today for essentials.
