Koyo 96-02 Toyota 4Runner 2.7L / 3.4L w/ 5MT Radiator (Requires Cap PN SK-C13)

Koyo is well-known for making solid cooling components, and this radiator is a great example of that. If you're working on a 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner with either the 2.7L or 3.4L engine and a 5-speed manual transmission, this is a direct replacement that will help keep your engine running cool. Over time, stock radiators can develop leaks or lose their ability to transfer heat effectively, especially if you push your 4Runner a bit or live in a warmer climate. This Koyo unit is built to handle those demands.

This radiator is constructed with a durable aluminum core and plastic tanks, a common and effective design for efficient heat dissipation. The core is designed for improved coolant flow compared to the original equipment, which means your engine can shed heat more effectively. This is especially important if you've upgraded other engine components or if your original radiator is showing its age. It's a well-built part that's made to fit right into your 4Runner without major modifications, making the installation process smoother.

When installing this radiator, remember that it requires a separate radiator cap, part number SK-C13, which is sold separately. Make sure you have that on hand before you begin. This is a solid option for anyone looking to restore or improve the cooling system on their 4Runner, ensuring reliable performance on daily drives or more adventurous trips.
