A very big HEADACHE until I finally found an easy way to do it: On a 2000 Mercury Mountaineer 5.0L, you remove the battery, then the battery platform (two bolts and one nut). Now you have room to stick a slotted screwdriver between the plastic interlocked wings of the condenser and the radiator. You twist the screwdriver to break off the overlapped sections of the wings on the old radiator. Now you can separate them and remove either or both the radiator and the condenser. When you install the new radiator and/or condenser, simply drill holes in the wings before installing them, then use a tie-down (cable tie) to secure the radiator and the condenser together.
