1989 Toyota 4WD extcab pickup 22re 32's factory 4.88 diffs <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
The stock radiator finally went and had to purchase one. Bought a new one from Advance auto parts & it was a direct bolt on. There were 3 differences between the two.
1. Stock radiator drain was center bottom. New radiator drain was to the left bottom looking into the engine compartment.
2. Filler neck of new radiator was larger in diameter than stock and came with a larger radiator cap.
3. New radiator is thicker and has 3 rows where as stock radiator was slimmer and has 2 rows.

Im concerned about #3. Think it'll hurt anything? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Radiator was lifetime warranty.
Thanks

I've never seen a radiator drain in the center. My 86 22RE and the one I have now the 88 3VZE both had the drain on the passenger side. The larger filler neck will make it easier to fill...that's about it. The 3 row is for the V6 and works great on the 22RE. It'll help keep things nice and cool. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" />

Throw the new radiator cap away and go buy one from Toyota.
