When my car was wrecked and they removed the front support/ radiator support I had them take out the a/c condenser because it was twisted.

Now that the new support is on I need to put the new a/c parts back in.

Do I have to remove the radiator to get the condenser back in?
I tried pulling the radiator back but I don't think there is enough room to get it in there with the pipes that come off the side of the condenser. The condenser itself is thin enough but with the pipes I don't think it will fit.

Any help/ advice so I don't have to pull the radiator?

Thanks in advance.

the best thing to do is to take out the fans, radiator, and anything else possibly in the way. you deffinatly dont want to risk puncturing.

You can do it with the radiator in but I would take it out. It isnt hard and is a lot safer and easier.

Thanks! Thats what I thought.

I figured I wouldn't get away with it easy lol, but I might be getting headers anyway so it can all come out and just be easier to put everything in at once I guess.

Any tips for a smooth install? Or is it pretty straight forward?
