OEM oil cooler worth it?

My truck didn't come with one and I found a seller that has one. I was wondering if it's worth getting or should I look aftermarket (if any exist). Thanks.

Note: I plan to add a TRD s/c later in the year so I figure keeping the oil temps down would help.

 

yes, jump on that deal!! i believe gadget proved that the OEM cooler dropped temps like 20-30*!

 

The second answer is, yes, there are plenty of aftermarket oil cooler options.

 

I think everything should have a cooler, especially for slow wheeling.

 

Its a good thing to have, but it depends on how much he is charging you. Most dealers sell the OEM cooler for $500. You can get an aftermarket kit for less than $100.

So, how much are you getting it for?

 

I like the factory set up.

 

Is $300 shipped a good deal? Looks great coupe!

About to pull the trigger depending if price is good.

 

$300 is a steal for an OEM.

There are a few parts.

Sandwich plate.
Two hoses.
Thermostat housing.

 

Coupe, will this work with the x1 thermostat?

 

You better hop on this if you're going to, it's on CT too and there are others interested.

 

I already put my name on the list. Thanks!

 

Here is a pic. Is there anything missing?

 

That looks complete.

Good Buy.

You will need to swap out the thermostat. As I remember you have an X-1.

I suggest you use the Toyota silicone for this and you it on both sides of the thermostat.

 

Thanks Coupe! I'll PM the seller. Where can I pick up toyota silicone?

 

The dealer.

Torspd hooked me up with it.

A lot of people have leaking problems with the X-1 thermostat. The people that use the Toyota stuff (apply it both sides of the thermostat) do not have problems.

I used it. So far so good.

 

I bought it guys. Thanks for all the help.
