These look VERY familiar to me, but I've searched every way I can think of... to no avail. Nor can I remember why they look so familiar.

Please post if you learn what they are.

Thanks!
 
They look very much like clips to hold a wire harness to the frame, but they are not the standard clips. I suppose it's possible that they were aftermarket.
 
Hi all .
If it's any help I sort of recall removing these the centre come back half of the forty series.

I'm in the middle of putting the wire loom back into the vehicle and still can not find a home for these two.
Trouble is there is not much of a wire loom run to the rear after you take away the rear lights.
Mystery.
One thing I do know is the rotisserie sure makes it easy for installing the loom.

Bambi,

Two things
1) if you've got a reference photo/image, I'll head out to check my '82 LX to see if I can confirm the location.

2) you're convincing me that an investment in a rotisserie is a must when I get to that point next year.
 
Nope, just come out to check - mine doesn't have them.

Body mount in front of rear wheel arch

Hi Dan Hi Bear
Well done Bear with the part number but were do they belong.
I don't think they clip to the chassis so I'm thinking these are a body clip.
Dan can you look the middle body mount .
Could they be a clip to hold the chassis mount bolt in place?

Re the rotisserie I have been offered $700.00 for it when I'm finished with it.
I only Paid 850.00 delivered .
An investment of $150.00 very very cheap.
This would be the best gadget I have ever brought.
If you are doing a complete build I don't know how one would manage with out one.
I would still rotate the tub up to ten times a day.
Nat and I were only saying last Saturday it will be like loosing a good friend when our yellow rotisserie is no longer required.

See the SOR diagram in the link. The tabs clip to the body to keep the body bolt from turning. That particular bolt is different. Seems like it has a special square washer built in. Pics when I get home if needed. Those special bolts are still available from Toyota. part number is 90109-10039.

I have not started my tear down on my 83 yet my thought is if it's OEM it may be for the dash pad mounting ...not sure
 
Later model (1/79 up) body-mount bolt retainers (52292/3-90300).

But my info suggests they're only used till July 1980

52292-90300 being this right-hand side version:

And 52293-90300 being the left-hand side version.

And Toyota calls them: STOPPER, CENTRE BODY MOUNTING BOLT

And I've got them on my July 1979 BJ40 Bambi (but they shouldn't be on your 1982 I wouldn't have thought Edit: ooops what build year is yours? I may be looking at someone else's because now I notice your signature line is empty of the details on yours!!!!).

:beer:

Ahhh..... It's a scale thing - I thought they were quite large. Give me a minute.
 
Hi all
I'm excited now.
I did not want to fit the tub to the chassis till I found the home for these two clips .
I will check the fitment of the clip when I get to the work shop this morning.
I have to agree that this is the correct home for these parts. I do recall removing them from the centre part of the tub.
Thank you all for your help.
Cheers
