Well, I've almost finished my tin top but, having a issue with what rad to use? I read someone's post about using the stock toyota rad stating that they cut out 3/4" of the hood latch area and bolted it in. Is this still possible with out a body lift as I have a full exo-cage so body lift is out of the question. I am running FULL toyota running gear from fron to back on 35's. If anyone could give me any feed back or any other ideas it would be much appreciated! I do have pics but not sure how to post on here. I have read plenty of posts but I only seem to get 2/3rd's of the answer I'm looking for (isn't that just always the case? LOL).

Thanks again folks!

the one i'm using fits a 84 montero with 2.0

Stock toy rad will fit without a body lift. Will need to use a different hood latch system though as you'll need to cut a fair amount of metal from that area.

I'm running a 22RE and stock toy rad. I bolted the rad to the front section of my cage. No body lift and 34's.

How about some pics?

Awesome!!! I've been stressn' about the thing for the last couple of weeks and you guys just summed it all up for me!! MUCH APPRECIATED!!! You guys Rock. I have plenty of pics but as you may have noticed, I am a newbie to this site so I'm still trying to figure out how to post them? I would definately love to share as It's going to be a pretty sweet ride. I live in Vancouver BC, Canada so to find a tin top is rare enough, let alone a rust free one!
