when i purchase my brake lines to put on my 6 inch lift, is thee only one set you can get, or how long of lines do i need to purchase, who makes the best brake lines, or are they all the same? /forums/images/graemlins/k5.gif
 
I will be having some 34" long ones made as well as longer rear ones, I will have more info in a few weeks.
 
I made those for the Sub by calling Orme Bros and ordering the bits to make them.

One thing about pre-made -3 hoses is that they have 2 very weak points in them, one right at the fitting end of each crimp sleave. If you go with pre-made hoses buy those that have a std -3 end on them and use adapters, then carry a couple screw together hose ends. If you break the end off of a pre-made with dedicated ends on it there isn't much you can do in the way of a trailside repair.
 
check to see if stock lines off a van will be long enough, i know guys have used them with 4" lifts, i guess it depends on the amount of flex you have.
