Re: Dorman Oil Cooler Lines

The radiator ends have a safety plastic cap that you just push or gently pry off of the ring type clip - then pop/pull/pry the retaining ring clip off and the line pulls out of the radiator fitting - remove the air filter box and its easy to reach (10mm nut and the box then lifts our (tie the rest up to the open hood. Thats the filter to rad one. Then the filter to block past the engine mount is a bear and does not fit - you can lift the motor with a floor jack/wood block and force the engine mount to stretch up but usually the rubber will separate from the block side so I always remove the lower bolt from the mount (frame to mount and as you jack the mount bracket should then move - this takes 2 people to do cause one has to hold the bolt nut thru the wheel well rear and the other has to rotate the bolt from the lower front with the skid plate off with long extensions - its your choise but that engine mount is a pain to replace (look at the bolts on the block side). Have fun.
