Littler Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I would say you need to remove the fan otherwise there's not enough space to remove it, it's bolted on at the bottom as well I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Fan off, viscous coupling off depending on rad type, upper rad pipe off and then lift it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wile e coyote Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 The shroud is in 2 bits. Get under neath front unclip bottom bit then remove bolts holding shroud to rad and lift out, dont need to remove fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 If you have a fat TT rad you do but then again that's just my opinion. I prefer to make a job easy than struggle trying to squeeze things past others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I would remove the the fan as trying to squeeze the shroud out is a bit of a pain and they are fragile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 We all have different experiences with removing them but still the top rad pipe has to come off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
