REMOVAL [ol][*]Disconnect negative cable from auxiliary jumper terminal. WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE PRESSURE CAP OR ANY HOSE WITH THE SYSTEM HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE BECAUSE SERIOUS BURNS FROM COOLANT CAN OCCUR. [*]Drain cooling system (Refer to 7 - COOLING/ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE).[*]Remove upper radiator crossmember (Cooling Module Mounting). CAUTION: Plastic tanks, while stronger than brass are subject to damage by impact, such as wrenches.[*]Disconnect the radiator fan electrical connector.[*]Remove radiator fan.[*]Disconnect hoses from radiator.[*]Remove screw that holds support bracket for transmission cooler tubes at left side of radiator (if equipped). CAUTION: Avoid bending the condenser inlet tube. Care should be taken not to damage radiator or condenser cooling fins. [*]Remove the air conditioning condenser attaching screws located at the front of the radiator (A/C CONDENSER MOUNTING). Disengage AC condenser from radiator. It is not necessary to discharge the air conditioning system to remove radiator.[*]Radiator can now be lifted free from engine compartment. Care should be taken not to damage radiator or condenser cooling fins during removal.[/ol]

Thank you for the infomation, however I still have some more questions.
Do I have to use Chrysler special coolant or conventional green one?Can I re-use factory hose clamp? Otherwise I will replace with screw tighten type clamp

if you have the green stuff in the car you can use any brand,if you have the orange color coolant then stick with mopar brand.using those clamps over is not such a good idea.use screw type.watch your knuckles!!!!
