Mekanik Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I liked the fact that I didn't have ATF on the floor along with coolant. Coolant alone is much easier to clean up in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Clayton Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Did my first one today, didn't like it. Maybe they will grow on me. By the way I took a bit of an antifreeze bath in the process, did I mention it was my first job of the day and I had no uniforms to change into? Don't ask for any details.

BigWalt Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 :(I am doing one right now, I am so glad I read this post, otherwise I will be pulling my hair out. Few minutes ago I was reading WSM, on radiator removal, the more I read, it is missing a lot of steps. edit:::Just finish today....ain't no picnic.....there are no short cuts, almost everything in front must come off....

the_twig_187 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I have one sitting in my bay at this very moment, was leaking at the left front tank crimp like all the others.I have done 3 of them in the past and can have the primary rad out with the secondary out the a/c evacuated and the p/s cooler just positioned to the side in 1hr... you will need a flex head wrench to get some of the tricky 8mm bolts on the back side of the primary rad but thats about the only hangup... very easy job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Clayton Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I employee this method, and like it because I can lift the rads out without a helper and it also keeps from scratching up any of the coolers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wiggled one out the other day and ended up draining the secondary coolant anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
