expansion valve to ac line pipe

[travis85904]

anyone know where i can get that small little 6" (approx) metal tube that screws on to the expansion valve and then connects to the ac line? i bent it when replacing my expansion valve and havent been able to find one anywhere

It's part of the expansion value. I don't think you can get it without the expansion valve.

yea i bought a new expansion valve and it didnt come with a new pipe. thats why i had to re-use the old one, and bent by accident while removing it from the old expansion valve

Some of the expansion valves that git our csrs don't use that part I forget which compressor it is for. The only time I've seen the part you broke is worth the expansion valve.

It's going to be a junkyard item, unless you find some brass compression fittings and copper line to patch it with. It's been awhile since I was in the evap box and I don't remember exactly what it looks like.
