I don't pull the fans or the radiator! If all you are doing is replacing the opti and you KNOW your seals are good then you only have to take the balancer off, the hub can stay on. If you take the hub off then you have to remove the fans at least, and possibly the radiator. The only things that have to come off to change it are the water pump, air pump, the intake assembly and the hoses.

Thats all null for now lol, I am glad you got her done

Air pump is long gone, and doing this on the ground in the driveway it was easier to pull the rad and fans. I got everything from the top, which was hard on my damn back LOL

I got a CMS Opti, he got it to me in LESS THAN ONE DAY. I mean, he sent it out on Friday evening, it got to me on Saturday morning.... granted, he is only about 1.5 hours away from me down the interstate, but still.... good looking out.
