danoid Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Not sure, I'd say it's probably best do, have ample roomage then and make the job easier no doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tintin360 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 I agree, take the front off as it will give you all the space you need to take out the old rad and replace with the new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragingpj Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 That's what I was thinking. Didn't know if anyone had done it before or not.Gives me a job tonight to strip it ready for the radiator coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tintin360 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 keep us updated as my rad was leaking, used radweld, but in time will have to replace it so I would be interested in how you got on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragingpj Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Will do. Just waiting for the radiator to arrive so hopefully get it sorted around the weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danoid Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Ignore what Rich might say, but any chance of doing a how-to on removing the front bumpers etc. Always handy which I'm sure you'd agree if one was available Few pictures and tools required, but if you dont fancy it no worries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragingpj Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 I searched for removing the bumpers and there's a load of posts with information about removing them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
