Hi,
 
Just did this and yes, it?s about a 2 hour job if you remove the front bumper.  The bumper is basically held in by 4 nuts, 2 on each side.  I am not very technical because I had help on this but I am almost positive that removing these 4 bolts and 1 screw under the wheel wells will allow for your bumper to come out.  Of course there are some light sensors and things to unplug, but not a lot.  Take the side marker lights out as well.  Once done, you will notice that you can drop the AC condenser fairly easily.  Hope this helps.

The radiator in the 90' has finally gone.  I replaced one years ago without taking the bumper off and it took nearly 5 hours just to get it out. 
 
Is there a way to search the archives for "radiator replacement"  I've been told that removing the bumper is the quicker and eaiser way to go.
 
Any help would be appreciated
