AC line replacement through rocker panel

Newbie here. Have had #1386 for about 2 months..
Having some engine out work being done on my early 1971 and PO provided me with a complete set of new AC hoses. I believe the AC line through the rocker panel is original to the car, so I thought this would be the right time to replace it..(plus the AC system was not working when I purchase the car.. new rotary compressor installed some years ago by PO and converted to 134a) I've searched the forum and seen some references to what a pain in the a** it is to replace, but I have not seen any notes on how to approach this replacement. Has anyone replaced these lines and can they offer me some procedural suggestions/hints/ or cautionary notes? I did review Mike Dailey's site on his AC overhaul, but he did not replace this hose. Any help would be appreciated..

Steve
