A FEW Mech Probs 850 1994

Of course you don't know my mechanical skill level, but do you think it is a moderatley easy job (time consuming excluded) to replace the thermo, radiator, and hose or should I try to find a mechanic? I do have Haynes, a fair assortment of tools and if I need another I am sure it is cheaper than prof. labor charges.
You are probably right about the suspension Erwin. I left it out as to not overwhelm the board with my problems but, there is a squeek/clunk/rattle in my right-front that won't quit. It doen't however effect the handling, just bugs the hell out of me.
As far as preventative maintenance or upgrades, are there any that could be recomended during these processes? Also priority, cooling sys. or suspension? Neither are noticably effecting the car right now. Thanks to both of you for the quick and thorough response.
