Its pretty simple to change the radiator. I replace mine about 2 years ago. The plastic on the side up close to the top had cracked.

Mine has the oil lines and transmission lines running to it, but it did not take very long.

I always use distilled water along with antifreeze, I never use tap water in my radiator except in an emergency.
May God Bless,
Jerry

Buy a haynes or chilton's repair manual, don't do repairs like this blind.
