How do you disconnect the AC line

Recently found out that when I installed the ALL PRO front bumper I did not bend the AC line enough, resulting in braking the AC line. I just picked up the new AC line and trying to figure out how to disconnect it. I am refering to the joint or union on the left side of the motor. The connection has a black plastic cover over it that spins freely

Re: How do you disconnect the AC line

I don't know, but unless you have the system to create the vacuum in the system, you would be better off taking the car to an AC specialist. I am not saying is a big deal to replace the line, is having the vacuum system what is an issue.

Re: How do you disconnect the AC line

I am not trying to charge the system or anything, I just wanted to unbolt the broken and bolt in the new part. It was a dump mistake on my part, just trying to minimize the financial mistake.
