So I put all this on in February. Left the front of the engine apart. Started re assembling it and can't find that dang adapter for the AC pump line. Anyone know where I can get just that little curved extension. Or, would it be better to flip the hose and use the straight side there and curved side up by the fires wall?

Turn the AC Line around and it should fit.
Rotate the fitting on the end you take off the compressor to line up with the drier.

I'll try to use it then. I didn't want to break it, but a little heat might help with the bend I guess.

Bought it on a black Friday deal last fall. Was surprised this spring when I opened the box to find a full replacement line instead of the adapter.



I wasn't surprised I lost theme damn extension, my garage is about 1/10 as large as it needs to be for all my crap. What did surprise me is that I still had the gasket...

I originally bent my line to fit. I later developed a leak & the detector showed it was in the line, so I bought a new oem line from Ford & the adaptor pipe from BD.
It really isn't a good fit, like previously mentioned, it makes the Oem line too long & its a bitch to get it all connected. It doesn't surprise me BD came up with a complete replacement line & did away with that adaptor.
My first line that I bent was a better fit than the second line & adaptor.
Also turned out my leak wasn't from the original line I bent, so if I ever have to take it apart again the original line will go back in there.
