Yes that is the liquid line from the recover dryer to the expansion valve. The hose shop should be able to cut the crimps, remove the hose and reuse that fitting. If not they can get hose tees with the service ports and use that to make the hose assembly.

Let's try this link thing again. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/sredir?uname=113741720077010029753&target=AL BUM&id=5695338093044400273&authkey=Gv1sRgCPGcz9jozvTyLg&feat=email The picture in my picasa album of the AC hose that I'm referring to is the one of just the hose (the rest are of the engine, van, etc). Yes, I meant evaporator. I would think the connector in the middle of the line is nothing more than tubing with fittings on each end and two service ports (high pressure for guages and high pressure switch).
