Will a AE92 radiator fit into a AE82?

Postby stealth » Fri Jun 23, 2006 5:28 pm

I need a new radiator for my 4AGE powered AE82 corolla and was wondering whether one out of a 4AGE AE92 would fit without too much hassle?
Looking at a picture or it, the hoses don't look like too much of a problem but will the bits which the radiator hangs on line up?
Could there be any other potential problems?
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

I haven't actually tried it, but If I could get hold of a free AE92 radiator I would put one in my AE82. You would need the AE92 top hose as well.
The AE82 top hose design is crap - running across the dizzy with an additional bracket :roll:

Check that the heights of the radiators are the same, otherwise you may not be able to close your bonnet

I really want to get my car back on the road and can't be bothered waiting around for a direct replacement so I'm just gonna get that AE92 radiator and make it fit! :twisted:
Thanks for the help anyways.
I'll let you guys know how it goes...or doesn't. :?
