make sure your radiator has the screw holes for your old fans so you can just swap them over. have 2 bottles of radiator fluid, I think they come in 1 gallon unmixed coolant.
you'll need some pliers, to take off the fasteners on the tubing, a socket wrench ratchet.
it shouldn't take more than 1 hour to do.
after taking off the radiator, you should flush it with some water.
make sure you have atleast a 50-50 mixture of coolant and water, or whatever is recommended for your weather.
