Hi there, just looking for a little help. Ive searched the forums as best I could but can't find anything on getting the rad out of the van.
I've undone everything I can see. There feels like there is a bolt at the bottom of the rad that's stopping it coming out. But I just can't seem to find them.
Thanks for any assistance. Have a good day Rossi

Appreciate the reply, that page is what I've been using. But i can't locate
the bolts at the bottom, that the thread mentions.

Check out this thread where radiators are compared 2WD and 4WD, go to posting number 9 and you can see that the lower bolts are located about 4”-5” from the lower corners. There’s a bracket that run across the bottom where the radiator rests on and is bolted into.
