The hardest part is getting the a/c bracket loosened up, but this will facilitate loosening the alternator and getting the belts off. Just be sure to have a new thermostat, fan thermoswitch, and gasket on hand. You don't have to replace the switches, but as long as everything is out, it's a good time to replace them. Also take note of the bleeder valve at the top of the head - be sure to open it and be SURE your temperature control knob in the cabin is on "hot" when draining and refilling. Good luck... -Justin
