    Instead of retrofitting the truck with a radiator you are retrofitting the radiator with a truck

    Thanks.
    I've seen it, wasn't thrilled about the hack job and bending my lines. I think welding attaching supports to the side and saving $100 on a 3-row is best for me. I'll keep looking. I did contact a radiator manufacturer a week ago and they replied with $800 for a custom radiator- I deleted the email because I thought was ridiculous but after seeing what you paid they are a bargain.

    Edit:
    I viewed the CSF Radiator thread again, I haven't since very early on; a lot has been done and now seems legit

    If you read later in that CSF thread, CSF has told multiple people that they'll be releasing a tacoma specific radiator later this year, so if you don't need a new radiator right now, you could wait and pick one up.

    If the buyer cannot wait, the FJ shroud has been proven to fit perfectly.

    I didn't see that, NICE. I need it when I do my engine swap, hopefully within 2 months. I'm switching to Evans waterless and am replacing everything.

    Watching everyone almost cry when it started at the end of episode 9 was great. And all because of a single wrong wire too, I imagine there was a lot of frustration off camera.
