Radiator support removal.

[husker77c]

Anyone have any tips on removing it? 94 IDI

I've got the radiator out and working on the cab bushing bolts but it seems I'm missing something. I took out the 4 bolts on each side where it bolts to the fender. Just feel like there's some hidden bolts I'm missing. It's still pretty solid when I wiggle it.

You need to pull the grill and lights, the plastic piece the lights mount to. There's more bolts in there.

Yep. Thanks for the reply. I missed a whole slew of bolts. Also there is a YouTube video of the removal process if anyone in the future runs across this thread.

Remove the bolts holding the bushings/mounts from the top. Nuts actually.

I was wondering about that. I'm still fighting it but I gave up for the night. I am real close to a sawzall procedure in the morning.

I got one of the bushing bolts out through the bottom. The second one is being stubborn.

Are you removing Just rad support....or entire clip..rad support and inner and outer fenders?

 

[husker77c]

Just the radiator support. Trying to leave the fenders in place.

Pulling the motor.

Pull the clip....it is easier in the end and allows WAAAAY more room

12 bolts to pull clip...after rad is out...

 

[husker77c]

I'm doing it by myself. I can't lift the whole clip by myself

I wish we had a removable top center section like the newer vehicles. It would save all kinds of work.

I got it this morning with the sawzall. It needed bushings anyway.

Got no friends to help? Only takes 2 to pull it off btw 3 folks make it easier and four make it a cake walk....once all undone...2 min clip off
