Smile New radiator help!

my buddy needs to replace his radiator and I am going to help. I am new to the DIY car and truck repair and changed the radiator on my toyota. It looks pretty easy to do but I was wanting to know if any one had a link to either a decent video or step by step directions to walk me through this! He has a 2004 ram 1500 5.7 liter hemi. Like I said I'm pretty new to DIY but I am confident could just use some extra help! Thanks!!

Welcome to the site. You can check out our How To's and DIY sect and see if there is one in there.

I know you could use my old cam swap thread as is in i give info on how to remove it

Otherwise check YouTube.

Remove the clutch fan
Disconnect the coolant and washer bottles
Remove the shroud
Disconnect upper and lower rad hoses

Up and out she comes. It wou be a good time to change the thermostat, water pump, belt, hoses, ect.
