I know this should be easy to fix, but so far I've wasted about $40.00 trying to cut to fit my bottom radiator hose. The vendor I purchased my new radiator

from installed a 2" outlet on the bottom of the radiator. My 1.75" hose cannot be forced over the outlet. I was wondering if anyone had the same problem,

if so how did you solve it. Possibly a part number or vender who helped you out, thanks for your help.
