radiator grille rack.
Remove the mounting bolts on the radiator
convergents and fold them to remove it from the
bottom.
Disconnect the air conditioning air hoses at the
compressor for the compressor/condenser connection
and at the quick-release union for the bottle/bulkhead
connection.
When removing/refitting the cooling system, it is
recommended that you do not disconnect the
connections between the high pressure pipes and the
condenser/bottle unit as the seals are special and
delicate to replace.Set the radiator cross member on a table with shims
and release the mountings.
Remove the two mounting bolts from the cross
member on the tips of the side members.
Lift the vehicle while holding the cooling system to
prevent damage (operation for two people).
