Factory removable top mounts?
Are these factory mounts? If so , does anyone know the load capacity?
I have seen them on 1st gens a few times but never knew if they were an OE option or not...

Not OEM.

The top is rated for about 75lb total.

You'll find this limit listed in the owners manual. SomedayJ scanned his for us awhile back, Google will find it. "Site:yotatech.com 1st gen 4runner owners manual"

I think they are extensions of the drip rail for mounting a rack to the top.

As others have said, those mounts / brackets are not factory Toyota.

I have those same mounts on my GemTop topper on my pickup.
