Hi All,
I posted this same question on my swap thread but wanted to reach the widest possible audience. While doing a Vortec swap I replaced my stock radiator with an identical CSF 2708 radiator and wanted to install -6an fittings for the integrated transmission cooler inlet/outlets. However...
Hello everyone hopefully someone can help me. I just got a 1990 4Runner with a 22re in it. The engine was rebuilt and has only 50,000 miles. When I purchased it I drove it about 2 hours on the Interstate (70 mph max, 5th gear, 3k rpms) with no trouble until I stopped at my destination. Then it...
Pulling this out of my build thread and into its own "topic". I'm having a hard time finding a used radiator for my 2F 1975 FJ55, but I suspect my scope is too narrow. I know there are new aftermarket units, but maybe you all could help me understand which OEM makes/models will drop in.
The...
Hey guys, anyone know of a guide to replacing the radiator support? The current one was damaged in a light accident and now rubs the wheel when the passenger side is compressed. This will be my first real work on my LC (and first radiator related work ever) and don't want to miss anything common...
Hi,
I am new to the LC/mud community and am drinking from a waterfall for LC knowledge. I apologize upfront for mistaken/incorrect information.
I recently bought a 1981 FJ40 that has AC in it and I recently discovered it needs a new radiator. I called specter to order a new one and was...
'97 80 w/ 202000+ miles
Long story short:
Blown radiator/overheating followed by "dead" battery and wacky response from alarm system.
The long story:
Heading home from work the other day when the check engine light popped on. Immediately after this the temp gauge pegged all the way into the...

So... Once again I find myself in need of an expensive replacement piece for my FJ60. I currently have a hopelessly clogged CSL radiator in my rig. No clue how old it is, but I need to replace it. Cruiserparts.net offers an OEM Toyota radiator "like new" for $175. My question is... Has anyone...
Hello everyone,
Before I start…. Yes I did a search…. My question, is anyone running an aftermarket Fan? Now I’m not talking fan clutch or electric fan, I’m talking about the fan/cooling fins.
I’ve come across (please see links below) some heavy duty aluminum and stainless steel flex fans...
Collective genius at IH8Mud,
I recently bought my first Cruiser, an 83 FJ60, bone stock, doors and top removed, roll bar added, 150K miles. Found it on CL, flew out to IL, and drove it home to UT. The 1800 mile trip was awesome. It ran fine, pretty gutless, averaged 11 mpg, would get hot...
Ive got a slow leak, see pictures below, at the lower part of my radiator. I've replaced the petcock a few weeks ago and after several inspection it appears to be at the seam. That's the only wet spot. Could I try sealing this with JB Weld? Advice is appreciated.
Changed Thermostat, flushed radiator and added new radiator fluid thanks to the great advice on the forum. As expected, I have a slow leak out of the drain plug. The petcock is old looking for sure, but many people post about replacing it with a brass petcock. I can't seem to find any. Does...
Has anyone used a radiator flush solution? I think my radiator has some sludge build up as I keep getting some very small amounts of gray residue up by my rad cap and in my reservoir. Anyway, I added this to my radiator that is partially drained since I am in the middle of my My overdue PM...
Hi, I am looking to replace the radiator on my BJ73 with 3b motor and can't seem to get right part number or find the right radiator the one I always find has the inlet and outlet on the wrong side they both need to be on the left and no radiator cap either.
I have a 1991 FJ that's thrown a code #28. "Number 2 O2 Sensor." Denso has two part numbers. I guess one is front and one is rear. Can somebody make it clear to a dummy (me) which one I need? A part number would help, too :)
Also, my radiator gets very hot when the car runs. I mean like...
Hello all, this is my first thread, so thanks in advance for any help on this.
2003 2UZ-FE 100 series
First, when I check (cold) my coolant level at the min/max reservoir, it shows about an inch below full. When I took my radiator cap off and looked in there, I could see the fins but no...
I replaced a bunch of parts on my 60 with aftermarket stuff and have some left over parts that I need to get out of my yard. If you see something you want, but don't like the price, make me an offer and maybe we can work something out. Please do not low ball me! These parts are all off a 1986...
Hiya! and help help help! : )
I have a 1974 FJ40- been having heat problems which I fixed with a good radiator overhaul.
BUT-
I would like to upgrade my current 4 blade fan to a 6 or 8 blade- I have heard they help with heat A LOT.
I am traveling to the US of A soon, and am hoping to pick one...
