Lower subframe removal - radiator support

[MARLBORO_LITE 0]

Apologies beforehand if I am not referring to this part correctly..........

 

The panel I need to remove appears to support the radiator, so is the correct phrase lower radiator subframe? Anyhow, I need to remove mine and replace it with one that is not made of tin foil!

 

Can ayone walk me through the procedure to remove/refit please?

 

I've done a search but that returns engine subframe related activities topic. I hope what I need to do isn't as complex!!

 

Cheers

Not a five minute job but not too serious.

Remove front bumper- 4 bolts through to chassis, disconnect lights etc. arch liners removed, splitter bracket removed

remove slam panel- self explanatory when you get to it.

Remove radiator-

disconnect power steering cooling pipe fastened to cross member

Prop up the engine for removal of front engine mount

Remove cross member and replace with new one

Basically covers it, sounds easy enough, good luck :D
