I have that special hose clamp tool and I have to say it is worth whatever you have to pay to get one. My time on the job was a little over three hours to take the old one out, and about the same to put the new one back in. No helper. It's not really the kind of job you need a helper for. I did it from up top and used Pedro's guide mostly. If you're going to drain the coolant to do this then the Airlift vacuum tool is also well worth the money, providing you have a compressor to operate it. You'll also need a rad hose pick
This was a nasty, ugly, lots of bad words, cranky job. You need to be mechanically adept and have good tools to tackle it.
