Default AC line has a hole!!!

I dont know if im posting this in the right thread or not but forgive me if it is. i have a 92 SC3 and one of the hose clamps rubbed a hole into my AC line. I tryed JB well but that crap doesnt do anything. Got one idea from a friend but i just have to find a shop to make it possible. Any ideas besides buying brand new compressor lines?

Get lines made..thats what i had to do on my sc300 with my 1jz swap...i got all custom lines made.

all they did was take 96 ac lines and cut and weld them to fit my car.

i got a hole from having a aftermarket filter on mine. it vibrated from driving and put a hole in the line. took that **** out and made a BFI but anyways.

just take out the ac line. its not too hard. the hard part is fishing the line out. you might have to bend it a little bit. go on yellowpages find a a/c radiator repair place and call around to see if anywhere can tick weld it for you. i got mine done for 25 bucks. put it back in. recharge your a/c with the can from autozone and you are good to go.

G, give me a call...I think I can fix it until you're able to get new lines.
