I bought a supercheap corrugated hose, that allows it to bend on the corrugations, and the hose itself also contains a coil to prevent crimping it.
It cost like $9 or $13 or something. Not expensive, and has done the job really well. But my bend was caused by an Aussie Desert Cooler radiator and not by a lift kit, so not 100% sure it will help you.
