How difficult is it to...

change the radiator in an 88 maxima automatic? The upper seal is shot on mine and it's starting to overheat.

its not hard to change the radiator. I did it on my 87. Just follow the steps that are in the manual, its just a matter of taking the hoses off of it, and swaping the fans onto the new one.

Yeah, I plan to get a new one eventually. Nothing is wrong with mine except it is the same one that has been in it since it was new.

I've got a quote for $350.00 for the radiator replacement.

I got mine from importedcarparts for about 100, and put it in myself

I was browsing ebay earlier and found this. Maybe it will be useful to you?
