IIRC, disconnect the battery, remove the cross-over pipe, pressure tank, loosen the alternator belt and remove the alternator. For me, the latter was the biggest pain. It helps to have a dead-blow hammer as the 'ears' of the alternator can need a little persuasion. Drain a little out of the radiator until you certain the coolant level is lower than the sensor. 19mm IIRC, you can check against your new switch. Either a thin-walled deep socket or maybe a rachet-wrench would work. I don't recall it being THAT hard, just close quarters.
