how tough is it to replace the the power stearing hose? how about the radiator?

both are starting to show signs of their age, and I'm just trying to see if this is something I can do on a sunday afternoon or something best left to the professionals. the chilton online site is being updated and my FSM is at work or else I'd look there.

 

It been a while since I did my raditor, but if I remember correctly,
it took me about 1 hour to 90 minutes.

 

power steering isn't too bad, just messy. At least on the GXE, anyway. SE shouldn't be much different?

 

Neither would be that difficult to do. I found a website that shows how to "drain" the power steering fluid with a turkey baster. It might take you an afternoon or a weekend depending on your skill level.

Changing the P/S hose is messy and a real pain, but if you have access to a lift it takes 15mins otherwise your looking at maybe a hour atleast.
The radiator hose on the other hand isn't too bad, and no where as messy.

 

cool. thanks for the information. I was hoping it wouldn't be too bad
