Looking for a high capacity radiator for my 91 HDJ81. (24 Viewers)

So this is a 3FE radiator and this bolts up to the hdj81 without modifications???

It’s actually the same exact one. Just no heat exchanger for an automatic transmission.

thanks I was wondering about the position of the hoses and the fan shroud.

I’ve noticed I run a lot cooler when I did not plumb coolant lines to the turbo. Im running a TD05-18G, 19psi, post turbo (at the dump) EGT never goes above 850F, coolant temp stay below 190F, when climbing long uphill (fully armored and loaded with camping gear). I am not intercooled but running a 3” exhaust and a snorkel. My IP setting is 7 clicks clockwise for the boost conpensator, and top fuel screw at 1/2 turn. Lots of Aussies who run journal bearing turbos don’t run coolant lines through it. I just make sure EGT is 300F before shutting the engine. I’ve been running for about 5k km so far and no issues.

Just a thought!

I’m running a Gturbo green at 18psi. I’m not a fan of it in the slightest. I’m running my egt probe preturbo. I’ve seen 1250°f. I have a HKS turbo timer that has 3 settings: 60 seconds, 180 seconds, and 190° oil temp. I pay close attention to all of my numbers when I’m driving. When it comes to a turbo, I’m going to a ball bearing next. Did I say that I hate the Gturbo yet?

I got my radiator in from Cruiser Outfitters, everything fits great -

Quick question for the parts gurus - I ordered new radiator hoses and clamps. They all worked great except for the lower hose. There's a section on one that's slightly larger and the hose clamp from the Partsouq diagram (9611110490) isn't quite large enough.

The clamp is 50mm ID fully extended, and I probably need a few more mm to fit it over the hose + water inlet. Sorry I know it's a little OCD but you know how it is, I'd like to stay OEM vs using a breeze clamp. Is there a better, slightly larger OEM hose clamp?

Hose clamps for lower rad hose:

Radiator Side - 96111-10490
Engine Side - 96111-10530

You may have to bite the bullet on whatever you can find locally. They definately exist in NZ/Oz, 49mm (1.9 ish Inch) core radiators are readily available here in NZ for HDJ81s:
Toyota Landcruiser 80 Series 4.2L Diesel 1990 ~ 1996 Radiator - https://silverdaleradiators.co.nz/products/toyota-landcruiser-80-series-diesel-1990-1996-radiator-new (that company suck but just as an example)

I'm running a Jayrad with good results:
JR2222J 80 SEIRES RADIATOR 1HZ 1HD-T 1HD-FT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - HD Automotive - https://hdautomotive.com.au/product/jr2222j-80-seires/

How’s that JR2222J radiator? Did it fit in with no modifications? And that has auto lines correct?
