1990 4-runner Parts??

[fd59]

I need to know where the best place to get a radiator and a radiator fan for my 1990 4-runner. Have found a place or two almost $100 bucks for a radiator fan--- give me a break! Any after market fan suggestions would also be appreciated.

Thanks for any information.

Radiator aftermarket for it can be bought at Advance Auto parts, not bad compared to stealership. I tried one and it wasn't exact but very close. Use is no way to go on a radiator, unless you can find a shop to repair yours. Assuming you have a radiator. I'm sure there are aftermarket electric fans out there, but would be more than $100.

Jeb,

Thanks for the reply. I found and ordered a new radiator and OEM replacement fan at http://www.carpartswholesale.com/. The radiator was $135 and the fan was $55 with shipping total was $213.75, not bad considering that just radiatior from Autozone was going to cost around $185.

Good job, great price. My fan is different from the one shown. Has an outer ring to it. Hmmm.

What many have recenly done is replace the stock fan and shroud with an electric fan from late 1990's Ford Taruses. I've not done it myself, but I think the Taurus fans fit almost perfectly in the space. Just have to wire it up with a temp switch so it will come on as necessary.

I think there's a thread on this forum that gives more details on this upgrade.

Just received the parts yesterday. The fan that I received did have the outer ring. They must have the wrong picture on the website.
