    You probably need to buy a Chilton repair manual if you are going to be doing a lot of work to your car.

    Radiators are very easy to remove. The basics: Drain out the coolant. Remove the upper and lower radiator hose. Loosen and remove the transmission cooling lines at the bottom of the radiator (if it is an Automatic transmission). Remove the (4) bolts on the sides of the radiator. Lift up and remove radiator. A little more work required if it has a fan shroud.
