replacing a radiator

well, i found out last night that my radiator is busted and leaking, so I need to install a new one. Has anyone done this before, and how much of a hassle is it?? Thanks for the help.

take off the hoses, unbolt the top mounts, reinsert, refill with coolant. about as easy as changing your oil.

If you are worried, then go pick up a Haynes or Helms manual, they describe the procedure in detail.
