Just bought a T100, one quick question!

Hi everyone,

I just bought a 1995 T100 Extended Cab SR5 4x4 with 59,500 original miles to replace my 96 4runner that was totaled about a month and a half ago. The truck was in LA and my dad is in San Diego so he checked it over and picked it up for me.

I searched and wasn't able to find an answer to this and since the truck isn't here with me I can't explore it to find the answer for myself. This T100 is an automatic with the 3.4L V6, should I get the B&M Supercooler to avoid any chance of getting the dreaded strawberry milkshake or do T100s not have this problem like 4runners and Tacomas?

Thanks for the help.

T100's use the same style radiator setup, just a different size obviously.

I honestly don't think the problem is that prevelant, but an external cooler will help keep your trans temps down. And that is a good thing.

Thanks! In that case, I will probably put one on, just to be safe, when I have the time and money.

Congrats on the purchase. I'd love to try a T100. Since it was an L.A. truck, you should make sure to keep it oil-sprayed every year and avoid any rust problems. Thats what I would do if I was an arrogant bastard like yourself .
