Good luck, I couldn't get one when I was chasing some a few years back, but that was just me.

you wont find Heim joints to match the original thread. it is 23mm fine (1.25pitch I think) it is not at all commonly used, ie very specific to Toyota.

heim joints and johnny joints etc are mostly going to be imperial threads
just have a new heavy duty 4130 chromo tierod made to suit whatever heims you are going to use. i had one made for my 80series, cost me $80 for the 32mm 4130 steel and machining to suit 3/4heims.
