first for the ac, you will have to replace the line, there is alot of pressure in there and there is really nothing that can fix it, unless you take it off and try tig welding it. chances are you will need a new line.

for the next problem, sounds likea cv joint issue to me. or a bad wheel bearing would check that out and see how they test out.
