Hello,

You must use a line wrench and you will need to jack up the car, here is a video of the job being done on a similar car there are diagrams (below) that will help you get the job done.

You SHOULD use flare nut wrenches to keep the fittings from stripping. Is it high side or low side? Threaded both ends or just on the steering gear? Here is a video on how to use a line wrench

Have you replaced the O-ring? Have you checked to make sure there are no marks on the hose itself where it attaches. Here is a video on how to change the hose out (generic) and what to look for with in the instruction in the diagrams below to show you how on your car.
