Default Ac line and log style manifold.
Getting started on my 04 4x4 turbo build. I'm building a custom log style manifold based off a kb manifold . The AC line is defiantly in the way. What's the best way to bend the a line without kinking it?

Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

No hurry is no worry. Small bends at a time.

It's easy to bend, just go slow as mentioned. And make to sure bend it at the bend itself, not where the pipe goes into the accumulator.

Oh i was worried too. Make sure you bend it enough away from the DP. You def dont want it 1/16 away. Good luck

Would also advise to wrap it in heat wrap.
