I just got done replacing my radiator. I left the end of the hoses mounted to wherever they were and only took them off the radiator. I also removed the surge tank. When hooking up the hoses they were fairly simple figuring out where they go. I know the J hose connects to the surge tank on top but it came loose from where it was connected. I can't find where it connects. Also have a small hose coming from the top of the engine in the middle and am not sure if it connects to the small port on the passenger side of the radiator at the top. I know I should have taken pictures when I was doing it but didn't think it would take more than a week to get the radiator. Any help would be greatly appreciated as always.

If it is the hoses I am thinking about, the J-hose from the surge tank connects to the top of the radiator on the outboard nipple and the one coming from the center of the engine connects to the top of the radiator on the inboard nipple. Both are on the passenger side directly under the upper radiator shroud. At least that is how mine is connected. Hope I am talking about the same hose you are from the center of the engine.

This. I just replaced my balancer, and when I put everything back together, I had these hoses switched. The hose sizes ARE different and I ended up with a pretty bad leak. Swapped the hoses and all is good.

I figured out the J hose thanks to you, but the other hose is small in diameter from the front of the engine and doesn't even reach the radiator very well. I think it's a throttle body coolant hose but I can't find where it connects, to another hose or somewhere. At first I thought it was coming out of the top of the water pump.
