Extended brake lines, how long??

Boris113 · Sep 23, 2010

I'm ordering all my lift kit soon but have a query about brake lines. I'll be fitting +5 inch shocks and +2 inch springs so will the 2 inch extended brake line be enough? A friend of mine runs them and all seems dandy but i would sooner buy once and know it will be fine.

Really? I was running standard props with that setup and never seemed to have a problem. Got wide angle ones on it now anyway tho.

Got some wide angle ones so will see how they fare, if it goes tits up then i'll go for double carden. Anyone have any ideas on brake lines? Need to start ordering bits before I go back to uni

was the question, will +2" extended brake hoses work?

Yes.

wandering if the droop travel which is now extended by 5 inches will rip out the lines if they are +2" or should they be ok?

jack up the car on the axle as high as possible letting the wheels hang and see if the hoses will handle it.

if not, lamma4x4 do hoses to length (up to 1 metre) for £15 each inc. vat
