I've looked and looked all over the forum for a DIY radiator install on a 4th gen and I can't find anything. Am I looking right over it? Does anyone know where I can find one?

Thanks

Auto or manual?

No need for a DIY. 2 10mm head nuts on the upper support brackets, two hose clamps, a couple connectors for the fans, and two trans cooler lines if you're an auto.

After that, just lift the old one out, swap the fans over to the new one, and drop the new one back in.

...etc, and that's only from the first 3 pages of search. What did I search? 'radiator install'. Search works for me every time

well....drain fluid, undo upper and lower hoses, one bolt holding a bracket on each side and it just lifts right out.

Very easy to do on these cars.. there's a drain plug btw. First time doing it, it took me about 1.5 hours and I had to do it in a random parking lot since the existing radiator cracked.

i would hate to be your neighbor. This would mean i would have to rake and spread seeds every year because of you. But i think i'd prob just hide all the dead animals in your yard as a payback after they drink the coolant...
