I've developed a slight leak at the bottom passenger side of my radiator. I had the jeep lifted and confirmed that the hole is small. I was going to add some stop leak to band-aid it for a week or two. I am in the process of looking for the best price on a new radiator.

I initially was going to pay a repair shop to install it for me, but I was wondering if this is a job I can handle myself. Anyone have any practical knowledge on how to remove and re-install a radiator? Do I need specialized tools? And how long would a job like this take for the typical average person who is good with their hands and is somewhat mechanically inclined?

Thanks,

not hard at all, just very time consuming as the whole front end of the jeep has to be removed. ie, grille, rad support, fan/shroud, etc.

but it's a little harder to do if you have skid plates. that lower rad hose clamp is hard to get to with the skid on.

Thank you. I'll be running out to get my radiator this afternoon.

IMO getting the fan out is the hardest part. I wish I would have had some one around to help.
