Radiator Replacement/Repair

[BrewmasterH]

I currently have a leaking radiator in my '88 FJ62. What replacement options do I have? It's been painful to find something that isn't done custom, or doesn't cost $400 or more. I was hoping that I could find something that will increase cooling (I live in the desert southwest), but doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

CSF2708 can be used for a 62, Amazon just under $300 unless its gone up. It has the hookup for the cooler or whatever that additional hose is 62's have that a 60 does not have.

The only one I'm showing on there is a Mishimoto for almost $400 ($397), thanks for the reminder that Amazon sometimes has parts for us. Completely forgot about them.

It's listed, but for a lot more than $300.

Amazon.com: CSF Metal Tank Radiator: Automotive

Performance Radiator is another source and a few bucks cheaper. It's not explicitly listed on their website as being a CSF, but several folks on here report that they are.

CSF 2708 for the win!

Prices have gone up dramatically on the CSF 2708. I remember getting mine for $300-ish. Not anymore though.

Thanks for the info everyone. If I'm going to go with stock, I can probably get mine repaired and save a bunch of $$, but if I get a new one, would the CSF be best, or would a performance aluminum cooling unit be better? Found a couple right around $400.

Thanks everyone. I picked a radiator up, and decided that I'm also going to get the stock one repaired so I have a spare. I really appreciate it.

Which is the correct replacement radiator for the 1988 FJ62 - the CSF 2708 or CSF 2709? Doing some research and it looks like there is a difference between the 1988 and 1989 replacements. Is that true? Thanks in advance.

 

[RredFJ40]

2708 is correct for the 60/62. The 2709 is for the 3fe 80 series.

I just picked up an OEM radiator for my 40 from Village Toyota. Right at $300 shipped to my door.

 

[VTBecasse]

2708 is correct for the 60/62. The 2709 is for the 3fe 80 series.

Thanks for the clarification!
