Punctured Radiator

mdhughes · Sep 6th, 2006, 05:28 PM

Hi Everyone,

I recently sustained a punctured radiator from a low-speed collision in my 1996 XE pickup. It's not too bad, but needs to be repaired before driven. How hard are those suckers to get out of there? Any tips?

Thanks,

Matt

Not very...it's pretty self-evident what needs to come off when you open the hood and look down.

Remove fan shroud. Disconnect hoses. Unbolt radiator. Lift radiator out. Done.
It doesn't get easier.
