I would stay away from the large AN fittings. They do not allow for much compliance (flexability), and they are very pricey. I chose to fabricate a "hose" from aluminum mandrel bends, ring the ends and attach it with 4" pieces of straight hose. By doing this I was able to route the hose through the front structure and around the steering rack without any rubbing at all. As a side benifit if the rubber hose ever needs replacing it will be easy to find replacement piece of hose. Check my gallery.
