It's actually pretty simple. Look for a cam swap write up and it's all there. The quick version is 1. Remove shroud. 2. Remove hoses and tranny lines. 3. Unpulg fans. 4. There are 2 retaining clips on the top of the radiator one on each side. Those pop out. 5. Lift the a/c radiator up and out of the cradle on the coolant radiator. 6. The radiator should now just slide up.

It's been a while so look for the write up but I think that might be it

Ok just finshed a while ago removing and putting on new rad. It wasnt hard just time consuming, mostly wasted more time going to autozone 3 seperate time.

1st time I went to get the 2 serpentine belts cause the originals were cracking, 2nd time went to get gallon on dexcool 50/50, 3rd time get another gallon dexcool cause it need more.

So drove it check for leaks looking good, just added little bit of trany fluid and thats it. Thanks for all helps.
