In this video I replace the engine radiator in my 2005 Toyota 4Runner with the 2UZFE 4.7L V8. While loading my trailer I happened to notice some pink stuff leaking from the front of my vehicle. Upon closer inspection this pink stuff turned out to be Toyota Super Long Life coolant. Looking even closer I noticed the side tank on the radiator was wet and thus the source of the leak.
I then ordered up some new parts and got to work. This radiator replacement wasn't too difficult at all. The only difficulty was actually filming the whole process. Not only did I replace the radiator but I also replaced the upper and lower radiator hoses as well as the thermostat.
Overall, the job was a success.
