Well there only two major hoses that come off the radiator. The upper and lower hoses. Which one are you refering to?

As far as the tie rod is concerned, the first thing you need to do, is take the bottom bolt off. To do this, remove the pin that holds the nut in place. Take that nut off. Then, loosen the adjustable nut that attaches the tie rod to the rack and pinion, not too much, just enough to make it so the tie rod spin can your hand. Now count the revolutions as you unscrew the tie rod. If you don't do this, it will through your alignment off a bit. The best thing to do is take a piece of paper and pen and write down the number of revolutions. Now simply replace with the new tie rod, again, counting the revolutions as you screw it back on. Stop at the number you wrote down, and with the new nut and pin bolt the tie rod back up.
