I have a 99 300M 3.5, and yes, it is close under there. Drain the system. Get it up on a lift, if you can. If not, get it up high enough to work Safety first. Make sure you work with a helper when any car is n the air. I suggest you just CUT THE LOWER HOSE and get a new GATES. Disconnect the wire for the oil pressure sensor and take it out too. (Chrysler has an Orange color (I think) lock on the connector that has to be pulled out with a needle nose before the connector will release. Aggravating, but necessary). In fact, replace the sender because a leaky oil pressure sensor is typical for the 3.5. Take out the oil filter, because, man, you need all the room you can get. As I recall, I also had to unbolt the power steering pump because of one lousy bolt. Buy a Genuine Chrysler thermostat with the o-ring. You'll thank yourself for doing that when the cheapie fails. Put her back together in reverse WITH the new hose installed on the housing before anything else goes in. NOT an easy replacement, but it can be done,

It's on the left side (driver side). It's by the belts. You can't see the water pump from the top side.
If you want to get to the water pump you have to remove the top radiator cross member, the fan assembly, the crank pulley, the timing covers, and the timing belt.

SOURCE: how do you change the thermostat & refill the
Locate the thermostat. The thermostat is in a metal housing at the end of the radiator hose where it connects to the engine.
Drain enough coolant to make the water level below the the thermostat level so that the coolant doesn't spill everywhere...
Remove the thermostat:
The housing is held down by two bolts.
Remove the bolts, remove the thermostat and scrape the gasket and sealant from the housing and the manifold.
When replacing, use Permatex #2 - non-hardening gasket sealant.
Replenish the radiator with 50/50 coolant/water mixture (re-use what you took out; don't pour down drain or on grass - kills vegetation).
Remove radiator cap and let engine warm up (look for leaks) to allow trapped air in the cooling system to escape.
Note: there may be some burping valves near the thermostat. If obvious, open them to allow air to escape.
Hope this helps!
