Mishimoto Part #: MMRAD-TAC-16
Description

Bulletproof End Tank Durability: The Mishimoto Performance Aluminum Radiator replaces your failure-prone factory plastic with a full-aluminum design and precision TIG-welded end tanks. This mechanical guardian eliminates the most common point of cooling failure, ensuring your Tacoma can withstand the vibration and thermal stress of extreme trail conditions.

Surgical Cooling Efficiency: Engineered with a 1.65-inch thick two-row core, this radiator boasts a 91% increase in external fin surface area compared to stock. This massive expansion in surface area directly facilitates a 30.2% improvement in heat rejection, keeping your engine operating at peak performance even during heavy hauling or low-speed crawling.

Integrated High-Performance Transmission Cooler: For those with automatic transmissions, this radiator features an extremely efficient liquid-to-liquid stacked plate transmission cooler. By integrating this directly into the end tank, it provides superior thermal control for your transmission fluid, protecting your drivetrain from heat-induced wear.

Magnetic Debris Defense: Each radiator includes a Mishimoto Magnetic Drain Plug to capture metallic fragments circulating within your cooling system. This high-tech tactical feature proactively protects your water pump and internal engine passages from abrasive debris, extending the overall lifespan of your cooling components.

Pure Bolt-On Simplicity: Specifically modeled for the N300 chassis, this radiator is a 100% direct-fit replacement for the 2.7L and 3.5L engines. It requires no cutting or specialized modifications, allowing you to complete a professional-grade cooling overhaul in your own garage with basic hand tools.

Details

Plastic has no place in a mission-critical cooling system when you’re miles from the nearest paved road. The Mishimoto Performance Aluminum Radiator is the definitive answer to the fragile factory units that threaten to crack under the stress of high-vibration trails and extreme thermal loads. Engineered as a tactical fortress for your 2016-2023 Tacoma, this all-aluminum powerhouse replaces vulnerable plastic end tanks with TIG-welded strength, ensuring your engine’s thermal health is never the weak link in your build. Mishimoto has reinforced the very heart of your cooling system, allowing you to point your truck toward the steepest climbs without a second thought about your temperature gauge.

Forged for the high-demand overlander, this radiator doesn't just replace—it revolutionizes. By increasing core volume and providing a staggering 64% boost in cooling capacity, the Mishimoto Performance Aluminum Radiator offers a massive thermal buffer for both your 3.5L engine and your transmission. It’s a professional-grade cooling solution that fits perfectly within the factory footprint, avoiding the "permanent scars" of a custom-fab project while providing the heat dissipation required for heavy towing or slow-speed rock crawling. Paired with a high-pressure 1.3 bar cap to raise your boiling point, Mishimoto ensures your Tacoma maintains its iconic reliability even when the ambient temperatures and the stakes are at their highest.
