Extended Brake Lines

I recently got rid of my old 110 and now have a shiney 2006 TD5 110. Now its time to ruin it with masive suspension and wheels and winches and bits!

Put all the bits in the online basket for a 4" lift, but one problem; It doesent look like anyone does extended braded brake lines for Defender this new. :doh:

Anyone seen any anywhere?

Thanks, Rich.

Most independant local garages can make them up for you

The flexy braded hoses? I dont mean the copper ones. Plus I woulded find it hard to trust a garage to do that.

Sorry - my mistake

Someone like this could probably assist

Flexible Stainless Steel Braided Brake Hose - variety of colours

or if you have one near you, a hydraullic (think JCB) repair/maintenace firm might be able to make what you need up

most garages could fit any hose you want by putting whatever fitting on steel or copper pipe to suit flexi ,but landies have used the same fittings for years so been to age specfic shouldnt be a worry

Glywn lewis does them but they are not cheap well not as cheap as std £3-00 specialals!

Thanks Jai that looks perfect. Will use them!

i think ext hoses will be least of your worries if your putting a 4" lift on your fender

any hydrolics shop can make braided hoses with whatever fittings you want on them

Also buying:

Cranked radius arms
Cranked trailing arms
Wide angle prop
Ajustable panhard rod
+ 4" ES900s
HD Shock turrets
Spring locaters front and back
HD Spring retainers

dont forget just cos your putting plus 4" shocks on the fender dont mean its lifted 4"

i had plus 5" terrafirma shocks on me last fender running a 2" lift it just means ya get more shock travel

Yea, Ive got Bearmachs longest hardest springs so should lift it a far bit. Deciding on which degree of radius arms to get, most are 3 degree but Ive also seen 6 degrees?!?
