Hey, all - new user here, and proud owner of a new-to-me '22 GX460! I've lurked the forums for the last six or so months, and I know answers are scattered around for some of these questions, but haven't seen much for my specific case. My apologies in advance if I'm doubling effort on some of...
Hello I drive a landcruiser 100 from 1999 with a 4 speed auto. The problem is that it keeps overheating. After only 1 - 2 hours of highway driving my transmission is already at 120°C. The oil that's comming out of my transmission cooler is just warm (like 40 degrees or something. Just warm on my...
I just picked up a used 2019 GX460 Premium. The vehicle has everything that I wanted except for a few items: external radiator/transmission cooler, full-length fuel tank skid plate and trailer hitch.
I got the trailer hitch installed by a nearby Lexus dealership while addressing a recall for...
1997 LX450. My OEM transmission cooler has done his time. Has anyone found an upgraded unit that they can recommend? Looking to replace the OEM unit and put the new unit at the same place. No need for fancy electric fan units for my use.
Thanks!
As the stock 200-series already has an aux tranny cooler, perhaps this is better described as installing an aux aux cooler. The stock cooler is solid. I imagine this is niche for the heaviest of rigs or those that do more aggressive off-road running that really loads up the torque converter...
Greetings,
I am in the process of performing a transmission fluid exchange on my 2016 Land Cruiser, and I noticed the transmission cooler bypass valve (the one where you stick a little paper clip in) to always have the transmission fluid circulate through the cooler is not in the same spot as a...
Have had difficulty finding a thread relevant to this. My external cooler appears to be on its last legs (97' LX450, USDM 1FZ) and is leaking quite heavily (visible on the core here). The Toyota unit appears to be discontinued entirely.
Does anyone have experience installing an aftermarket unit...
2003 Land Cruiser 215k on the clock. Just picked this up a few months ago and its been a project.
Ok, so I foolishly let a weeping coolant tube / hose connection fester into much worse. I started the car and went back into the house to grab something. When I came back out I saw the grill...
Hey All,
I am going to be doing a larger post with my entire situation surrounding the unfortunate circumstances ( quick hint: Denso radiator from Amazon fulfilled by Parts Geek) that led to the thing you never ever want to see:
Long story short, I have done a few things to get past this...
Hey All,
I am getting ready to swap a transmission into my 98' LX 470, I unfortunately was dealt a blow with the strawberry milkshake of death ( radiator failing and pulling coolant into the transmission) when I installed my Amazon.com purchase Denso unit a few months back. I have not written...
Brand new B&M 70268 SuperCooler Automatic Transmission Cooler, with 4.5 feet of extra hose and clamps.
I bought it before I decided to do an H55F swap and now I don't need it.
Price: $70 + shipping
(Originally paid $108)
I am having a helluva time getting the hose on the fitting down behind the headlight, under the battery tray. Anyone have any tips? My bag of tricks is empty. I've found a few threads regarding a new trans cooler, but nothing about stock hose replacement.
97 FZJ 80
Thanks,

I've been searching 'mud, reading the FSM, and looking at parts diagrams, but haven't found everything I need to know. I want to replace the transmission hose running from the transmission to the coolers. I know the hose is 3/8" I.D. (actually 10mm), and I know there's the front cooler plus a...
Anyone else had this happen? The lower barb on my at cooler is almost corroded through. The top one looks completely fine. Is there a drop in new replacement that anyone has used instead of the oem?
@beno whats a new one of these cost?
I'm looking for the front two lines (soft lines) that connect to the radiator. They are discontinued by Toyota and my local shop can't make them so I'm stuck looking for a good used set. Anyone have any? Thanks
Hey everyone,
I am planning on adding a transmission cooler soon to my FJ62 and I was thinking of adding a fluid control thermostat (like this one Derale 25719: Fluid Control Thermostat 1/2" NPT | JEGS ) after the radiator and before the aux cooler. This way the aux cooler only comes online...
I have my transmission preheater bypassed since I'm usually offroading in the summer. But recently I finished my gauge cluster and now I can see my transmission temps (sensor is in the trans cooler line before the cooler). I see temps from 80-140, 140 is only when really getting after it or...
I bought a B&M 70274 external transmission cooler for my 62, it has two female 1/2 NPT but I'm completely lost on what I need to get from my CFS radiator to the 1/2 npt then back out 1/2 NPT from cooler to the oem tranny line back to the a440f.
I'm trying to keep the original transmission...
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...
