The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Got any tips or tricks - removing radiator- '34

This is related to my ongoing post but I wanted to concentrate the answers on this specific problem..

So, I am at pulling the radiator and all that remains are the two bottom hoses. I still have front fenders on it, so there isn't a lot of forward clearance to pull the radiator in that direction.

Does anyone have any tips or tricks that they have used when removing their 1933 - 1934 factory radiator? (yes, mine is a Walker radiator, but it is basically the same)

I'm thinking about putting some upward pressure on the radiator to see it the bottom hoses will disengage. Don't ask me how I will get it reinstalled...

Got any hints?
