Aftermarket AC condenser

[Viper588]

Hey guys i replaced my AC condenser, the old one had a leak in it. I replaced it with a new one and everything fits but when i try to connect the AC lines the hookup on the new condenser is about 2-3 inches off from the old one. There are two lines that hookup to the condenser a larger flexible line and a smaller hard line. The flexible one i am able to get to reach the new condenser the smaller hard line i can not. Is there a way to get the smaller line in a flexible version? Are these sizes standard for AC condensers in cars? i tried doing a quick search but didnt find what i was looking for. Thank you for any help!

EDIT Here is a pic of the line I need. It is from the accumulator to the condenser

Edit 2 -Well i got impatient and figured since i got the new condenser cheap i would risk it and bring out the pry bar. Everything seems to have gone great and it hooked up to the pump now being vacuumed, hopefully everything holds and there no leaks. ill post and update in case anyone is curious.

I was gonna say if the long line is flexible, why not just move the accumulator over enough to connect the line and re-mount the accumulator. But seems like your good now, hope your vac holds well!

Just keep in mind that the accumulator-drier, the cylinder in your pic, holds the desiccant pack and if it's the original, you should replace it since you've replaced the condenser. It's about $92.00 on JNZTuning. Also, if your pry bar method ends up failing, maybe add a flex line to the short side.
