Thread: Coolant Swap

I've been putting the jack in right in front of the passenger side tire and to the front corner of the cradle, too. Throw a jack stand on the back side of the cradle from the rear of the passenger side tire and that will give you gobs of room to do whatever you need to do. I removed the front air dam (it's been off for about 5 weeks, now) so I have access to the lower radiator hose and left side of the engine.

With the jack in that spot, you'll be able to leave it in place while you're draining off your coolant. I drop it down, too, once the radiator is near empty and can get a few more cups out. A kitty litter pan is about the right size if you don't have anything bigger to drain into.

Thanks everyone for your valuable information. I will get this done one of these days when my car decides it wants to quit being a huge pain haha.
