I couldn't find the bending pliers anywhere, other than Harbor Freight. So I am going to get a pair next time I am down in Washington. I am heading down on Friday, but in the mean time, I borrowed my neighbors spring bender. You know the kind that fits over the tube and then it keeps it from kinking. I tried a sample piece and it looks good. I'll let you know how it works out and how those pliers work when I get them. I don't want to go around the other side of the hydrovac, it will be sort of exposed, and not supported enough. Whoever put that piece in before had a compression fitting, and it was two piece.
