No easy way to remove radiator. (IMHO, removing the radiator on an H is probably the most miserable job there is when restoring a Farmall.) You have to go up through the bottom of the bolster to get at the two bolts that hold the radiator on at the bottom, can't get in there with a socket, takes a wrench & you have to turn it over with each turn. (I've never tried a ratchet wrench, that MIGHT work better.) They are fine threaded & usually rusted. Be sure to get all the cotter pin out. Don't let them turn in the radiator, they'll break the solder on the bottom of the tank. Best luck I've had is to use lots of PB or your favorite penetrating oil for a couple of days before you start on the nuts. Oh, by the way, you can't see what you are doing very well either. An M isn't much better. Also, getting the height right for the steering shaft to go through the top tank when you put it back on is real a pain. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)
