How to change a 1999 chevy blazer radiator. PLEASE?

HI,



I NEED TO SAVE MONEY. I NEED TO CHANGE MY RADIATOR. IS IT HARD TO DO IT? I SAW THE 2 RUBBER HOSES ( top and bottom) i also saw some metal hoses hooked up tp it. how hard are those metal hoses to change? since they are from 1999, could they break easily? please help thanks



$130 for a new radiator

$300 for a mechanic to do it.

those lines are trans cooler/make sure you get line wrenches to take them off/be careful/wd 40 them and work them back and forth to ease them off/lines seize on the pipes/disconnect hoses/disconnect bolts around the rad that holds it in and take straight out/some times its better to get new part there so you can see what you have to take off/rad comes straight up

it's R n R ( remove and replace ) meaning it goes in the way it came out. self explanatory.

You should have no problems.
