Just replaced my radiator...

The radiator on my wife's 93 started to crack at the top of the radiator assembly, a problem which is apparently common in Gen 3 (?). Anyway, the new radiator is in (thanks eBay!) and while the hoses feel solid, I'm wondering if I should be considering hose replacement while I'm doing the job. Thoughts?

Bad part is, I thought of this after I put it all back together and filled it back with coolant. :\

Might check the heater hoses. Had the small curved hose going from one of the long steel coolant pipes (to water pump) to the coolant outlet flange on the head start to leak. Very hard to see. If you remove any of the hoses suggest replacing the spring hose clamps with a screw type.
