hey mate not to sure erm not to sure its been in my room for a while and i have forgot! nah i didnt get one mate!
That is one from ebay mate I think... I just installed the same rad in to my hilux LOL :) you will have to take the rad to a engineering shop to have the feed for the AST tank fitted...... there shouldn\'t be any oil lines on the rad unless you have an auto..... Manual cars have seperate oil coolers behind the outer vents in the front bumper!!
The only other fluid that needs cooling is the powersteering, so if you have a manual, you might find that the previouse owner has done away with the Std power steering cooling pipe & fitted an Auto rad and used the gearbox oil cooler for the power steering!!

I got the 1st gen version a while back. Keep a close eye on it, mine has started to leak through a bad weld too and I had to use rad weld.
