Re: bent radiator support

Re: bent radiator support
Remove the condenser and radiator and beat it back into shape with a hammer, supported underneath by a jack and a 2x4. If screwed up enough, your electric coolant fan won't work and you could overheat, among other problems. I just straightened mine this way (it's not a jack point, either). FYI, the towing points are in front of each front wheel, what looks like a loop in the area of where the sway bar connects to the body.
