Default Wanna upgrade from 1/4" to 3/8" lines ksport air, need help!

I want to upgrade to 3/8" lines and fittings for my ksport air. 1/4" us too slow for me. The shop finishing up my install said it can't be done without redrilling the hole in the shocks to accept 3/8" fittings. Is there any other way? I don't wanna drill it out cuz it will void my warranty. Is there any adaptor fittings? I'm not too sure the size of the fitting on the strut. I need help or a link to somewhere that sells adaptor fittings. Want to hurry up and get my car out the shop.

what you can do get an adapter for the hoses. Look for a push connect for 1/4 to 3/8 and do that from there out.

the problem i have ran across is the rear accepting a new fitting due to its tight space. I am going to do a 1/4th line and run a union fitting 1/4th to 3/8th.. n yea
