Hi guys, i just replaced the radiator in my 03 hemi ram, got it all together and
Realized there's an extra hose coming off the overflow tank with nowhere to go! The
Stock radiator has no cap, and the new one does. The hose is the one below the overflow tank cap, and im pretty sure its pressurized. What should i do? Please help!!!!!!!! Thanks!

it does have a cap, just not on the radiator itself. it is on the overflow bottle, whick is pressurized. there is a t connector coming off the lower rad hose that connects to the overflow bottle. then there is a smaller hose coming out of the top of the bottle,for overflow. And another one that is more in the middle, which originally connected back into the top of the rad, but has no place to go on the new one.

Yep, wrong radiator. The 02-03 radiators do not have a cap, just the degas bottle. That hose coming off of the degas bottle is supposed to plug into a nipple on the drivers side of the (correct) radiator.
I know these arent the best pics as they are from my phone and its dark, but hopefully you can get the idea for these 3:
