Technical Ducato 96 2.5TD Radiator

[cumbriangeorge]

While changing the front cross member I noticed the bottom of the radiator was a bit rusty. So thinking about replacing the radiator, doesnt seem to be a difficult job BUT in front of the radiator is an aircon condenser. Can the radiator be changed without having to degas and recharge the aircon. The condenser seems to be fitted to the radiator with 4 brackets. Can i assume that a new rad will have fixing points for the condenser?

I changed the radiator on my 1997 Ducato based Swift, I guess you could just lift and move the aircon unit out of the way if you remove the front bumper, cover the aircon with cardboard to avoid damage.
