Really could use some help here guy. I just installed a new radiator on my AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l CJ5 . The lower radiator hose is not fitting right. I had to cut over three inches for it to fit, and when I took a closer look the hose is rubbing up against the power steering belt. The hose is a Continental B71011. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

If it's a pre bent hose try switching ends. They only fit one way.
