    Hey guys replacing my water pump and thinking about replacing the radiator. It's on an '08 Tundra but the radiator looks like it may be a replacement already so don't want to go overboard if it was replaced by the prior owner a few years ago. I'm not finding info on how to read all the letters and numbers on it online. It has a QR code on it, but it doesn't go to a website. Thanks for the help.

    That QR is probably for indexing in the factory. Has UZ on it, so I’ll assume you have the 4.7. Since that QR is likely from the factory, I would replace it. Not sure if 2nd gen 4.7s are the same, but the 1st gen’s used the lower part of the radiator to cool / warm the transmission fluid. When the radiator fails it can mix coolant and transmission fluid and create the dreaded pink milkshake.
