Re: Radiator leaking
The trans lines should be an inverted flare. Use a flare nut wrench to ensure you don't ruin the nuts.
Drain the radiator, remove both hoses, and overflow hose, if equipped.
If you have a plastic shroud, remove two screws in the top edge, two in the lower edge, and a couple on the sides that hold the top half and bottom half of the shroud together.
Remove the bolts in the top of the core support that retain the top radiator brackets. Be careful not to lose the rubber pads.
Lift out the top half of the shroud, then the radiator.
Make sure all the connections match on the new radiator. Sometimes the top neck will be resized using a rubber sleeve. They work fine.
Reinstall the radiator, make sure the bottom pads are properly placed, insert top pads, and install the brackets. Reinstall the top half of the shroud, and reassemble both halves, connect the hoses, refill coolant, check ATF, etc...
