I just did this yesterday on a Brand X vehicle in the fleet. The long wheelbase was originally equipped with just two lines with a connector. I went to three lines which made it easier.

I don't have the proper bending tool. I just clamped a pipe of about 1" in diameter in my vise and bent the line on that while holding it in place. The line bends easily, you just have to be sure you bend with a radius so as not to collapse it.
