CSF All Aluminum Performance Radiator For our trucks FINALLY!!!

I was going off of this... But I also saw an ad saying 2 row

 

It’s a two row. I can take a pic tomorrow. I’m not sure why that spec sheet is goofed up though since the rest of their product page clearly states it’s a two row.



As an owner I can tell you it’s a two row for sure.

 

Yeah, I definitely read both when reading. I trust its a two row

 

Anybody had a problem with there radiator, radiator support bracket bent. Changed out water pump, alternator and some pulleys. Ran the truck and trans fluid all over the place. Did some investigation and found the lower nipple off of the radiator broke off. Guess I’ll call CSF on Monday.

 

Apologize in advance but didn't read all 74 pages - did see a post saying it would fit the 2.7 - has anyone actually installed it in the 2.7 ? Thanks for any positive reply.

 

@05Taco4x4 installed the FJ radiator, and he has the 2TR engine.

 

Damaged during shipping?

 

Box looked ok no damage.

 

That is no good. Only issue I had was one of the bolts for the shroud was not threaded right. I just grinded the screw in because I did not want to take everything out and rethread it.

Curious is that the nonstop tuning water pump pulley?

 

Yes and the crank pulley, but can not see um do to the supercharger pulley

 

How do you like them? I am thinking about getting some. Did you get the alternator pulley as well?

 

Just put them on lol. Got the alternator pulley but the alternator I got has a smaller pulley so can’t use it.

 

Thanks - I'll try 2 C how he did.

 

So when I went to the CSF website I saw that that FJ 7076 radiator is listed as having 1-row in some places and 2-row in others. I sent an email to CSF to clarify this and to ask about how it compared with the upcoming Tacoma-specific 7082. The 7082 is 3/8" thicker and 1-11/16" shorter than the 7076. Here's what they said:

"Sorry for the delay in response. We were completing the final test fitment on our new Tacoma radiator and we just completed it today.

The FJ Cruiser radiator - CSF #7076 - is a 1-row 31mm core with CSF’s B-tube technology.
- we’ve fixed the discription and dimensions on the website.

The new Tacoma Radiator - CSF #7082 - is a 2-row 42mm core with B-tube.

Both are upgrades over the OEM units, the 2-row 42mm Core would be the best performance, and would be a drop-in fit for your vehicle. I suggest you go with this new model.
- it will be available next week for sale once our dealers get stock.
please let us know if you need a referral to a dealer to purchase or if you have any other questions.

TL;DR the Tacoma-specific 7082 sounds like it's the way to go....especially if you don't want to modify your existing shroud to fit the FJ radiator or buy the FJ shroud/tank.

 

I already have the fj one and my dumbazz is over here like ooo now I need the tacoma one

 

Thanks for the update. Any ideal if it would be a direct swap out on a 2008 2.7 AC Stick Taco ? Thanks for any reply.

 

The 4.0 and 2.7 share the same radiator I believe, so you should be good to go. This seems to be how toyota does trucks that share multiple engines. For example my tundra has the 4.0 but it uses the 4.7 v8 radiator since that is the highest engine option. Probably do with how the chassis is built, it must be cheaper to just use the larger radiators for the smaller motors rather than having different mounting spots dependent on the engine that is originally spec’d out.

 

Thanks for the fast reply. I written Ravi to make sure - they are in CA and I'm in NJ so don't want any problems at that distance. Again thanks.

 

Wait for the fire sale on @Murphinator's slightly used FJ version...

 

Thats a bummer
