There are different configurations for this rad depending on the vintage...

well as long as the top hose goes to the right side, and the bottom to the left i should be ok. This rad would go into a 75 fj body

Passenger's side and driver's side are meaningless terms...

Also, the hose inlets changed from non-PS years to PS years due to the PS pump location.

John, you make me laugh... I was thinking the same thing. I can see it making sense in the domestic market forums, but in the JDM and 24V section driver/passenger makes my head explode!

Hedge, do you have the original rad from the 75? Have you taken measurements on the rad to see if a 60, 70 or even 80 rad would fit? It might be better than the 40 series as you could get greater capacity and better cooling by rebuilding yours or sourcing a bigger one.

No but not a bad idea. also thought of something aftermarket that might fit.
