The hardest part is getting the cooling fan out past the charge pipe. The rest of the job is pretty typical.
Probably wise to pick up a few of the smaller coolant lines, like for the EGR cooler. I gambled and didn't replace any thing other than the water pump and T-stat. So far, no leaks. My water pump was just starting to get a little play in it.
