Radiator for U.S. based 1hdt

[donnerpassing]

Howdy everyone. Sprung a small leak at the bottom of the radiator and have been getting a little confused on what radiators are good replacements that are accessible here in the USA. Ive found the 16400-17020 from Toyotapartsdeal, its just the manual version and an oem replacement so everything will line up, but no trans cooler for my 1hdt auto trans, but I could run a external trans cooler.

If anyone has any input on where to track down oem radiators or ones that are even better, I'm definitely all ears and would appreciate a point in the right direction. Sometimes having a JDM diesel in the states is stressful haha

You answered your own question. Get the -17020 and be done with it.

Pretty sure it was your recommendation in another thread from a while back OGBeno, just didn’t know if the info was still applicable to today. I’m going to try and see if I can get it here asap, daily driver that I can’t have down for every long

2-3 day turnaround based on where you are located in the US.

Make sure to inspect it for concealed damage before taking it home. Critical.

I went with the CFS, bolts right in. the CFS is all metal.
