Default i am car illiterate

i just bought an 87 mustang convertible. my dad and i just replaced the radiator and now one of the hoses going to the radiator that runs from the transmission(actually both) are leaking transmission fluid....and...well...i want to know why..and how to fix it.
no matter how tight or loose the hoses are..they leak like a mother.

please tell me what to do..because i need to drive myself to work. sooo..that'd be cool if someone who is nice helped a sister out.

damn.

Default Radiator

Well it could be a few things, depending on what kind of radiator (some aftermarket ones I have seen had differnt thread patterns) it could be that it is not the right thread for the line, you may have kinked a line and have a small hole, or it could be as easy as some plumbers tape on the threads.
