Hey guys, i have a 98 tocoma, I need to replace my radiator. Do i have to take of my front bumber or can it just come out like that. If some one has a quick run down or how to guide. i will appreciate that.

Thanks

 

need to drain it first and then remove the fan shourd and there should be 4 bolts holding it on

 

The bumper shouldn't be in the way at all. X2 what Elton said, plus the coolant hoses of course, and if it's an auto the ATF coolant lines need to be disconnected.

 

thanks for the info....Any one has pics...or a step by step processs...
thanks

 

Should be the same for your's as this 2003 FSM shows: http://www.deserted1.com/FSM/

Do you have a V6?

For some reason they reference BO-8, maybe you need to remove the grill?

Its a 3.7 v6 ...thanks for the help

 

The bolts holding the radiator on are behind the grill. Not sure if the must come off but it would make it easier to get to those bolts:

i did mine on my 98, the grills gotta come off, un hook the hoses, get a new thermostat while your at it, drain it, leave the fan shroud hang on the fan and the four bolts and thats it, easy one man job

 

Fixed it for you.
