it's very simple..

Drain coolant
Disconnect the large radiator hoses
Disconnect the electrical connectors for the fan's
Remove upper Radiator mounts
Should come right out.

A Helm's or Haynes manual will have pictures.

it should be a easy than all you have to do is undo the top and rear rad fluid hoses, and unhook the electrical connectors, and unbolt the top 2 mounting bolts, all of this of course after it has been drained... then it just comes right out

Yes, I would definitely dispose of the anti-freeze properly. Drain it into a pan, and store it in milk jugs or laundry detergent jugs until you can take it somewhere. Pep boys usually takes it for free. Same with oil.

Anti-Freeze can kill dog's, cat's and other pets. Not to mention, you don't want it seeping into our fresh, drinking water supply.

^ you also get 40cents per gallon for disposing of oil at Autozone. 2.5 gallons and you'll have a dollar to put towards gas!

I know because i work there, but i generally keep that secret from the customers (customers are dirty bastards).
