    I wasn't stranded anywhere, so I didn't need a trail fix. Picking up a denso tonight and swapping it out this weekend.

    Being that radiators are thin aluminum, JB weld is an excellent candidate for a permanent fix. Coolant systems don't run very high pressure anyway. Unless the radiator was totally rotten, one little pin hole filled with some JB isnt going to impede its performance, but it sounds like the crazy white boy got a new one anyway.

    If you plan on replacing hoses, get em from the dealer. I bought Dayco since that's what Toyota uses most of the time, and the upper hose was shaped just a little different, the lower though was no problem.

    And I'm sure, under different circumstances; jb weld be a suitable alternative. But I'd rather just put a new one in for peace of mind. Especially since I'm still making payments on the thing.

    Hoses look/feel okay. But I might snag a new lower, since I'll be down there for coolant. Thanks for the heads up.

    X2. My upper Dayco replacement hose was a little different also. I had to trim a little bit out of the fan shroud in order to get it to fit without rubbing against it
