I can't answer the first question because the answer to the second question is yes. You have to remove the radiator cowling from the radiator, and that's a lot easier by taking the rad itself out, though on my project car I wasn't worried about taking the condenser off... I haven't disassembled my fan motors because they work fine. Why do you want to take th emotors apart? Are they not working?
