It comes off easy. You pinch the bracket at the rear together. I pull one arm out at a time. You’ll obviously have to lower it first and get the wheel out of there. ?You’ll see what I mean when you’re under there. Have you seen the “auto” bleeder for the rad? I bought it a long time ago, have yet to install it.?
Pretty slick and I also bought his air flap blocker which will cut down on road noise I hope and that I did install and it’s great. Also regard to the van cafe stainless lines did you get the syncro ones or the regular ones? I was told that the syncro ones land in a better place in the engine bay for the RMW kit, so I’m really hoping that’s true as that’s what I bought. Fingers crossed….. ?
I agree with the little bit everyday. I force myself to do that also. Sad thing is pretty much every day I discover another part I’m unhappy with and have to order a new one.?
If you’re interested I’d like to keep in contact with you directly outside of this email group as it seems you’re ahead of me and like minded and I could use the help I’m guessing.?
My cell below, I’m also on whatsapp and Facebook if that’s better?

Congratulations. ?Bit by bit, day by day, it comes together. ?I have a good friend who is forever working on his 1960 split window bus. ?His philosophy is “do at least one thing every day, no matter how small or trivial it may seem. ?Just do it.” ?So I’ve adopted that philosophy and sticking to it so far.

That said, I did not accomplish much today (did get the front radiator hoses removed) but I’m getting up tomorrow morning determined to remove all the plastic coolant lines, hoses, and the coolant tower. ?I’ve thought of removing the spare tire clamshell just to get it out of my way, but ?I’m not entirely sure how to remove it. ?Any ideas?
