If you’re looking to keep your engine cool and running smoothly, you can’t go wrong with a CSF radiator. These guys have been in the game for over 50 years, and they’ve got a solid reputation for delivering quality. They’ve got a huge lineup—over 3,200 different models covering everything from Acura to Volkswagen. So no matter what you’re driving, there’s a good chance CSF has a radiator that fits.
What I really appreciate about CSF is their commitment to quality. They use the same materials and construction style as the original equipment (OE), whether you’re dealing with Copper-Brass, Plastic-Copper-Brass, Plastic-Aluminum, or All Aluminum radiators. This means you’re not just getting a generic part; you’re getting something built to last. Their radiators are designed to meet high-performance standards, and they’ve sold over 30 million units worldwide. That’s a lot of cooling power!
One of the standout features is the OEM specified Plastic Tank-Aluminum Core construction. The tanks are made from virgin-grade engineered plastic resins, which are glass-filled for added strength and durability. You won’t have to worry about this radiator giving out on you anytime soon. And those gaskets? They’re made from special-grade EPDM rubber, built to withstand extreme temperatures—up to -120 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s some serious heat resistance!
The fins, which are the heart of the radiator, feature a high-performance multi-louvered design that maximizes airflow and cooling efficiency. Plus, every unit is 100% leak tested before it leaves the factory at 150% of operating pressure. You know you're getting something reliable. And let’s not forget about the packaging—CSF uses an industry-best packaging standard that can survive a 10-foot drop test. So you know it’ll arrive in one piece.
In terms of specs, this is a downflow radiator with a single row design. The core measures 20 5/8" in length, 29 11/16" in width, and has a thickness of 1 1/4". It’s made from aluminum, while the tanks are plastic. The inlet is located on the upper driver side, and the outlet is on the lower passenger side, both with a diameter of 1 5/16". This specific radiator is a perfect fit for the 2017-2019 Toyota Highlander.
Just a quick tip: when you’re swapping out your radiator, don’t forget to check the old radiator pressure cap for any signs of wear. It’s a small detail that can make a big difference in performance.
Overall, if you want a reliable replacement radiator that won’t let you down, CSF is where it’s at. It’s a solid investment for anyone who takes their vehicle’s cooling system seriously.
