Jan 17, 2020 at 17:39 comment added Al_ My car has a 90° downwards bend for the hose part of the suction line and a 180° bend for the hose part of the discharge line (compressor to condenser). 16 years and 71k miles, and no leaking hoses yet (touch wood...). I'd add that hoses aren't supposed to be touching anything (except soft plastic). Letting them rub even against a metal line will eat the hose until it leaks. So route AC lines really carefully. As for factory made parts, OEM is usually ridiculously expensive, especially whenever the line you're buying comes with a pressure sensor.
