XJ Radiator replacement, how hard?

Jul 18, 2003 1 Replies

So the bXJ needed a jump twice today ('93, 4.0) and as I left work I decided to stop and get a new battery at the nearest Les Schwab since the old one was still under partial warranty.



Anyway, they knocked the upper hose off the radiator while removing the battery and claimed it was due to rust. I'm of the opinion that it was working fine when it went into their care it should be working fine when it comes out but if they don't feel that way how bad a job is it to replace the radiator yourself?



TIA, Bob


Get your new radiator from 1800RADIATOR. They are awesome, fast, and the price is right. It is a one hour job but if its your first time then plan on

2 and 1/2 hours. Pull the electric fan out first to make the job easier. My three core radiator from them was perfect. KH
