Hi all. I was under my truck last night and noticed the mid-body mounts are gone. I don't want to go to Toyota ($380.00 for a clock, you clearly don't want my business)(cant imagine what these would cost) my question is where do I go and what do I buy to fix this? The other side looks much the same. what cost should I expect? Thanks in advance.

wow. strange. ok, if it is supposed to be missing than so be it.
The picture was taken on my phone with me standing on my head in the dark in the cold. it was a case of "picture looks good enough!"
Anyone else want to chime in on the body mount issue?
 
Everything I read on here said that they were supposed to be missing. I had it in for frame repair last month and they swore that was not the case and replaced them. I can't imagine only that specific upper bushing rotted away on every 4Runner with that mount so it probably wasn't really necessary. If you were already going to replace some, you could add it. If not I wouldn't worry so much about it.

Starting to not worry now. Thank you everyone.
 
My 99 was exactly like that as well. My wife's 96 doesn't even have a mount there. I think it's for some very small incremental improvement in crash safety. It's not supposed to be 'engaged' all the time like the rest, just come into play when the body tries to buckle upward.

If It's all the same I think I'll just avoid that level of crash!
