Thanks for the advice! From what I’ve read in here sounds like others have purchased those items from rock auto instead of going oem without issue. That was what I planned to do unless the general consensus is oem or nothing?Perfect time to also do water pump, serp belt tensioner/belt, and thermostat if you haven't already done those.
get the serp belt tensioner/belt and thermostat from Toyota. Get the Aisin water pump from Rock Auto. Don't think you need them yet, but if you want to get upper and lower radiator hoses get OEM also. I'm replacing mine for the first time at 228,000 miles (same with fan clutch, idler pulley, and fan bracket).Thanks for the advice!

Do you have a part # for the fan support bearing you mention? What did the noise sound like?For anyone going further than radiator and doing tensioner/idler/water pump, seriously consider doing your fan support bearing. It sees a lot of force, and at 150k mine was just starting to make noise.
As for rock auto vs OE.. I'd go OEM for any pullies & belt, rock auto Aisin is probably fine for the pump.

Fan support bracket & bearing - with high mileage check yours
2013 3UR-FE Landcruiser, just approaching 150k miles. I had a belt squeal on cold start at about 120k and installed a new OEM serp belt, which resolved the issue. At the time I checked the condition of the idler and tensioner pullies, as well as the fan support bearing (our fan doesn't run on...forum.ih8mud.com
The flat part where the part number is printed is flat. Where it meets the curve of the radiator top was shaped differently between the old and the new. There are pictures of both in this thread.
I'm on the same trajectory, so I just put an ~$800 order into Olathe Toyota. Figure I might as well do the water pump, idler, belt and hoses while I'm in there. Costly, but a whole lot better than paying shop rates, or even worse being stranded on a trip. If any of the parts I remove are good, they become emergency spares.
