I know its just a few bolts here and there but it would make it a lot faster if i knew exactly where and what to do. Also I'm assuming I have to pull the fan shroud off, but doesn't that require pulling the fan off? and if so what tools do i need and how do i go about it ?

thank

You should be able to remove the fan shroud without taking off the fan. Once its off, its just 4 bolts that hold the rad on, its pretty easy to do.

if you need a write up for this then you really shouldn't be working on your own car. My wife, that had never done anything car realated was able to figure it out on her own. Asking for a manual on this is like asking for a manual on jacking off.

You don't even need to remove the fan like IDsgloo says above.

HAHAHAHA, I was talking to my wife about the radiator removal and she says: "just start unscrewing things until it falls OUT!" I was laughing hard for a while, I have a in my eyes right now from laughing!.

normally i would have never asked for something this obvious but I am in a low light situation and dont have flourescent bulbs (its parked in my garage and the door broke this morning .. and of course no interior lights lol)

well THAT should have been mentioned in the original post. It's very straight-forward. Glad you figured it out on your own, I was going to lose all hope on you.

the only Bolt that may pose a problem is the Lower bolt on the driver's side that holds the rad to the Car.I find IF you remove the Battery Tray,you can get at it NO problem.Other than that, undo Four Bolts on the Rad.undo the Clamps to the Rad,take the Hoses off,(two big hoses upper and lower,and one small heater hose,lower).OH..Don't forget to Disconnect the SENSOR Located at the Bottom of the Radiator,sort of on the Driver's side Bottom of the rad..it is on two bullet type connectors.and One more connector is on the coolant Level sensor at the Top of the Rad.you should be able to plainly see that.
