Remember lexuspartsnow is a broker site and not a brick and mortar so you WILL be sol when you have an issue. I would recommend against them or any of their partner sites. Zero customer service available. Support your local mud members.

Copy that. I'd kept some parts recommendation URLs from mud members over time, LPN was among them, caveat: I haven't gotten TOO deeply in the weeds in Mud outside the GX world and some nonsense chit-chat threads. A lot of the excellent content is less relevant to me, 80s, 602, 40s, hundos, etc.... Being in the light cruiser family I don't rub elbows with too many of the known entities..
As such, and respectfully ignorant of some of the depth this mud community has to offer/share, who are good member connections for parts or good JDM, EDM, CDM parts site (particularly for Prado bits)? Or what about known dealer sites, and particular toyota dealers that sell online? In Subaru land there was a CO dealer (Heuberger motors) I'd order parts from as they ALWAYS had the best prices...

thanks in advance...

I replaced mine with a Koyo aluminum before my Moab trip last year to eliminate the plastic tank issue.

That's NIIIIICE!!! What'd that set you back?
This also factors in the eliminated plastic sides issue!


PS, 'missing 10mm, last seen on the bumper during rad swap'

LOL

I was one of the first ones to have one and install it last year so I don’t remember but I wanna say it was $375.

Nice spot, the 10mm has been there the whole time!

I replaced mine about 2 weeks ago with a Murray radiator part#433870 and paid about $215 for it. I would have done a Denso but I was leaving for Colorado to offroad the next morning. So far so good it kept operating temps where they needed to be from 1,500 feet 100degree temps to 13k feet and 30 degree temps. It only took about an hour for the install.

Any noticeable temperature differences?
