    If you remove the radiator you get more direct air flow to cool things down

    Around 1.3m first gen Tacoma’s were built and I’d venture to guess less than a third are still on the road after frame buy backs/crushing, non warranty frames that are toast, and general accidents/mileage.

    The factory radiator in the 1st gen Tacoma is made by Harrison.
    They make radiators for everything.

    Yeah, unfortunate for sure.
    and that being said, when I replaced mine 4 years ago, i used some knockoff from a local Performance Radiator, and it's working just fine. It actually looked a bit stouter, bolted right up.

    Will the Denso 2213138 fit a 2002 2.7 automatic as it is not listed under it on rockauto.

    Rockauto also lists the DENSO 2213136 under 2002 V6 automatic.

    https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=4722684

    https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=4722549

    Confused on which to order for my application.

    Most manufacturers start discontinuing OE parts after 10 model years. It's good that Toyota hangs on a good bit longer on stuff.

    Hell I was able to get a throttle cable straight from Toyota for my old 96 Camry in 2018. Nuts.

    So I guess my question is which will be direct fit and have mounting holes line up correctly and clear everything?

    I believe the taller one is for the auto trans.
    I have the manual trans and replaced the radiator with the one for the auto and it still fit. Just sinks deeper into the front skid plate.

    you realize this is a cult at this point. I don’t care about reality or “business”. I want my OEM ball joints in their beautiful OEM boxes until I croak

    It is widely believed that 555 sankei is the OEM supplier, but it is actually Somic Ishikawa. But I doubt you can find these at your local autopart store

    4 run, 2 don't
    Create a thread on the Jeep forum and blast the manufacturer for not keeping up with the limited demand! :bananadead:

    Then proceed to belittle everyone that doesn't agree with you.
