broke my radiator end tank and am trying to replace it. i can't get the damn thing out. i tried pulling it out as an assembly (fans and all) but the A/C hoses are in the way. tried detaching the fans and pulling them same deal.

andyone know how to do this easily? am i gonna have to take off the compressor to move the l;ine out of the way? or what?

thx in advance.

 

With the AC lines still in the bay you can try bending them out of the way (nothing to severe) and pulling. Make sure also no parts of the AC assembly are getting pulled up along with the radiator.

 

they won't move far enough

i'm stumped on this. i tried removing the left fan first seeing as how it looked to have more clearance, then moving the right one to that position and pulling it, but it is too big still. funny how a 15 minute job always turns into 5 hours huh?

 

Always, its Edwin's Law of Simplicity --> What should be easy isn't.

Have you removed the fans from the bay also? That makes it world's easier.
