Pre-bent transmission lines?

Hi i have a 1978 ford f-150 with a 400 backed by a c6 that i rebuild not to long ago and in the process of removing the engine and transmission my transmission lines wound up getting kinked so i was wondering if anyone knows were i can get pre-bent transmission lines?

I saw that Inline Tube has them for a 2WD; I didn't look at 4WD.

Inline tube - Online Catalog - Ford

I've used In Line tube before on other projects and was well pleased. The steel re-pops have pretty reasonable cost.

$40 for used lines? That's ridiculous.

I just bought some rear stainless brake lines from inline tube. They are top notch quality, perfect fit. The guy on the phone was professional and helped me everyway he could.

Hmmm. I always just made my own. I guess if you were going for a show truck that would be one thing but if not, just make them yourself.
