    I have an 03 single cab in need of a radiator, obviously don’t want aftermarket. Come to find out Toyota discontinued radiator assemblies - which only leaves after market. Makes me wonder why Toyota would do this to a critical part on our trucks. Guess they all want us to buy hybrids….

    I’m sure there are a few left out there but still begs the question for my other truck next time it needs one

    Apparently your brain is too dense to use, my point is they are discontinued. That was the title and still remains the problem. I am thinking long term considering the average life span of our 1st gens. I’ve got one on order already

    You asked for parts for your truck, Toyota does not carry them. Denso is probably the manufacturer for Toyota. (Toyota does not make any parts, they only assemble)

    I appreciate the help but if you actually read my post I don’t ask for parts. I shared a discovery

    So, how old should a line be before a manufacturer discontinues OEM branded parts? Should I be upset that Chrysler no longer sells factory replacement parts for my 1940?

    So why is it so obvious that you don't want aftermarket? Radiators aren't exactly rocket science.

    At least 20 years, kinda pre mature considering there are millions of our trucks still driving around. How many 1940’s out there?
