Are you trying to bend the rubber hose or just fit it to the riser/exhaust? If just trying to fit it, dish soap a good trick. <br /><br />If you are trying to bend the hose leaving the elbow, you shouldn't be. I made the same conversion, and my guy sold me a small angle fitting to accomplish the conversion.
