Like the title said, i just finished flushing the radiator/heater on my rig. I used the prestone flush kit ($3.95 at autozone) Not too bad once i plumbed everything. The hardest part by far was the fact that half of my hoses were weeping and had crystalized coolant around the joints. So i replaced them all with new hoses. Getting the old hoses off required many, many curse words a few cuts on my knuckles, and a knife. Once i finally got the old hoses off and replaced the new ones the rest of the process was a breeze. I followed B's writeup in the FAQ section. Also used e9999's pics to help make things clear. All in all if it weren't for the difficulty of the old hoses, i would say it's a job. BUT, because of the old hoses i will have to give it a rating.

EDIT: also wanted to add that i was soooooo glad i didn't find a hint of sludge. Actually the old fluid that came out looked as good as the fresh coolant going in. So i guess that's a good sign.
