    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Only took 30mins of 75mph driving and pulling to a stop to get to 178° finally. Doesn't stay warmed up at speed tho. Needs a t-stat

    The Delphi box will likely house 555 parts. And I don't think there is much other choice than OEM on the bushings. Good news is the 555 generally are very solid with the LCs

    Oh I missed that the first read through. That sounds like a Chinese brand for sure. But if he can see a pic of the part might be able to tell if 555 or not

    When you see the box and where it was made you'll know. Aftermarket is either 555 in some other brand box or some Chinese factory rebranded in some box. There's like 2 or 3 factories that make the same quality of parts. Some company buys them and sells them in a 'pro-forged' box or whatever company. You'll have to see the part.
