Freeze Plugs on Lebaron?

I have a 94 Lebaron 3.0 v6.

I need to replace the freeze-out plugs. Where is there location, how many, and how do I replace them?

Update:

don't be an idiot and answer the question =]

Update 2:

thank you notaclue

Update 3:

thanks for the info guys!

i took my intake manifold off

&& from both of your answers [minus the first one] i have located all of them except for the ones on the sides.

and so the first person is satisfied. I know its them because when i poor water into the coolant container thingy it shoots out the back of the motor, which is no where near the top, bottom or bypass hose.

thanks again i'll decide who has thebest answer later.

    The frost plugs on a V6 ARE LOCATED at the sides , front and back of the block . This is a trickey job , DO NOT try this unless you know what to do . If you have a leak , or the plug s are rusty you may have to change one of them ,hopefully the bad plug is in an area of the engine compartment that you can reach easily, . There is one plug for each cylinder and a plug at each end of the cyl heads . IF you can reach the leaky plug you will need 1 pensil shaped magnet a cold chisel, and a small ballpeen hammer . Thisjob is easly done with motor on bench,if the block is in the car ,and you can reach it from underneath the car , Place chisel at bottom of plug and knock the plug into water jacket, you will have to fisn the plug out with the pen shaped magnet , lift plug out then apply long chisel to inside edge of plug and pry toward you . You will have to tap and pry at the same time ,once removed an easy way to plug the hole is to install a block heater , you do not have to attach the cord,have a garage do this job for you , estimated cost $80.00 labor at an honest shop.

    They are on the side of the block with one for each cylinder generally. Looks like a inverted cap. Just pry them out and put a new one in. I always use "Indian Head Gasket Cement " just coating the outside before hammering them in. This is for fail safe leaks! I never have leakers when doing them this way. Installing them you can just use a socket thats about the same size as the inside outter edge so when you hammer you are on the thickest part of the metal.

    PS: This website is filled with these idiots! They know nothing but like to shoot their mouth off to show their ignorance!
