AMP Research Powersteps on a 2000 Excursion?

I'm about halfway through the install of AMP Research's Powersteps on my 2000 Excursion but I hit a roadblock installing the passenger side arm with the motor. The problem is that the motor and gearbox is hitting the AC lines so it won't fit on either the forward or rear position. I read through this install on a 2001 Ex and it seems to have worked on that year:

Has anyone successfully installed the Powersteps on a 2000 Excursion?

Looks like there is room above the lines. Gently reshape them to run up a little higher. Put carpet over the jaws of a pipe wrench and use it to put some gentle bends in the pipes.
