Default Will a 94 radiator fit in a 92?

Mine ia a 92 with a 3vz 6 cyl in it. I have access to a 94 radiator that is from a 1mz 6 cyl.
The only difference I can see from just a quick once over is that my 92 has a cap on the rad with a tube leading back the overflow tank, and the 94 does not.

The radiators have differant part numbers.

If you have both radiators check the bottom where the prongs on each side go into the grommets on the car. The distance may vary with car year.

Also the outlet and inlet location.

I think my answer is no.....
On my 92, the lower hose is on the pass side, but on the 94 it's on the drivers side. However, the fan and the shroud appear to be the same.
I removed my radiator last night. I cleaned off the fins with a high press garden hose and it really wasn't much dirty. I then flushed the heck out of it and it flowed really well.
So I think my radiator is fine. I'm just gonna put it back it.

The transmission needs to be separated from the engine. Before this can be done the axle need to be pulled out of the differential. The engine needs to be moved around a little to pull the trans off.
