Trans-flush and radiator replacement order.

Hi all..

I was going to try to resolve 2 ongoing issues with my volvo (93 940) this weekend and wnated some advice.

I need to:
1. Flush Transmission
2. Install new radiator and thermostat.

I had put Auto-Rx in the transmission and have run it 1000 miles, so the fluid needs to go.

Should I flush the trans first? Then do the radiator? I figured I didn't want to mess with trans issues while anti-freeze issues exist.

I guess I also need to figure out what fluids/supplies I will need on hand (since I have no other transportation).

Need:
12 Qts trans fluid
4 gallons anti-freeze
2 SS hose clamps for radiator
Tubing for radiator trans connection flushing
Funnel to fit trans fill pipe.

I have a radiator, temp sensor grommet, and a thermostat with o-ring.


Can you guys think of anything else I need?

Thanks


Seth
