could you measure the core height to see if its 2WD compatible ?
I sure could. But I'm on the road for nearly another month, so I won't be able to get to it until at least then.

HOWEVER, I can tell you that the radiator is a standard Toyota core. When I took it to the radiator shop to have the outlet moved (it was originally on the far RH side) hoping to avoid the most hated hotrod part they noted that it was a perfect match for (I *think*) the V6 radiator, other than the pipe locations. It sure seemed to me like it was just as tall as the 22R-E radiator was, although it is MUCH heavier. The elbow is original though, it originally exited parallel to the core, facing the LH side of the truck.

So, I'll see if I can remember to measure it when I get home next (feel free to remind me if I've forgotten). I *should* get to go home around June 23 or so. You just need the height of the core?

The RH PS pump would be on an LHD 2LT-E truck only right? I wasn't quite willing to risk taking the chance that it would be compatible with a PS pump from a 2L, so I made due with what I had. I do know that I'm about the only guy on toyotadieselmadness that seems to have run into this exact problem. I'll have to put the correct pump on the "to-do" list, because it would also allow me to put the factory mechanical fan back on. But it's definitely at the bottom of that "to-do" list now.
