Modine is a good aftermarket name. Often, you can buy the identical OE radiator at a lower cost if you look at the OE radiator and find name of the mfr.

Toyota placed it too low, crossmember doesn't cover it from the bottom part, plus there is no cover between stock bumper and radiator. So last winter while I had stock bumper I cached couple snow/ice from trucks in front of me. The radiator is aluminum and easily bends. Everything was fine till the last week when it suddenly started to leak without any notice.
By the way, I checked my friends Mazda 6 and found that Mazda on street car made "U" shaped crossmember under the radiator and inserted the bottom part of the radiator inside the "U"-shaped crossmember. This is on the street car which is supposed to drive on paved road. Toyota on off-road vehicle let the radiator open to the road abuse. Very strange and illogical.
