Disconnect radiator hoses from the engine, remove the radiator from the car. Install the new radiator and hoses and fill the cooling system with coolant. Thank you for useing 2carpros

It is almost as simple as carlife65 posted. Make sure you unplug the cooling fans and leave them on the radiator. Undo both hoses from the radiator (Sometimes it is easier to take the lower hose off of the engine and put it on the new rad before you instal it) and just move them out of the way. Disconnect the 2 tranny lines from the bottom of the rad and let them hang in a drain pan. Then remover the 2 mounting bolts on the top f the radiator (12 mm) and lift it out. Swap the fans over and make sure u position the tranny fitting the same way on the new rad as they are on the old rad. It is a very simple job. Make sure u dispose of the used coolant correctly.
