Lift/Brake Line Question

[sedone]

I put a 4 inch lift on my M1008 and looking at the front brake lines they look like if I go too far in a twist they might rip. Anybody have experience or suggestions for what lines I should go with and where from?
TIA, Oliver

you need extended lines, may as well spend the little extra and get the braided stainless steel lines.

You can have the Hose Man make some steel braid if you can't get them through CK5

What they said...just get lines longer than you think you need. Either room to expand the lift or room for that one time you REALLY flex the suspension out more than you ever thought it could.
You can always zip tie the slack away.

Yeah, AJM is right. You always want them longer than you anticipate. Compensate for suspension flex and other things.

If you get braided steel, make sure they are plenty long.

Rubber lines will stretch, braided lines snap.

the 6" lines from the guy on CK5 are for 6" of "flexy" lift. I have tons extra on my truck.
