Extended Brake lines

[Morphyne]

I am lifting 2" all around. I wont be rock crawling or anything other than maybe some light overlanding. Any need to extend the brake lines?

Search wasn't working btw....

No need, I've got no issues with mine running standard length Icon shocks. If you are planning on getting Metaltech 4x4 long travel rear then it might be a good idea, or maybe necessary at that point.

Thanks. I figured as much. Just trying make sure I do this once.

I upgraded mine to SS braided, and the kit I used happened to be +2 on all lines.

While it worked fine, it left more slack than needed up front. Definitely not needed for a regular lift. You actually have to be more careful during install to make sure you they don’t get in the way or snag on anything.

I bought this 6 line kit for my truck... in case you were curious

Before & Afters

Rear lines were worth going +2, they seem pretty comfortable under heavy flexing.

It depends on rear shock length. My fox rears for 2-3" lift (24.8" extended length) were a little too long for the brake lines from the frame to rear axle at full droop. Easy to test by jacking up the rear from frame. I went with extended lines from metaltech, crown performance brand I believe but goodridge are nice too.
