Sorry for your troubles Miles. Radiator replacements never go according to plan. Oh hell, who am I kidding, nothing ever goes according to plan. That is why I am planning all day, so maybe I will be a bit surprised and get done early.

Joe, I have to back out on this weekend, a fmaily emergency has come up. If you do not get finished today, let me know I will have some time this week.

Well we ran into issues. It is a lot harder than they made it sound like getting in to the bolts you need. We got the exhaust mid pipe off, the tranny cross member off, starter off, and started lowering the back of the tranny so we could get the top 2 bolts off the bell housing off. That is where we ran into problems. The top right bolt we could not get a strait shot on it and using the knuckle just caused the socket to slip off. When we saw that the bolt was starting to round, we stopped and put the tranny back up and I took it to a shop.

Thanks Richard for the hook up on the shop.
