Extended brake lines
 

After installing my 4" rough country lift, I realized there weren't any
front brake line brackets with the kit (although I swear they said there
were -- but it was ordered back in February...). So, should I go with new
stainless steel lines? I've heard stock YJ lines are longer, but the local
Napa is quoting my just as much as for a new set of steel lines.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

HAving broken a handful of the stainless steel lines I'm not much of a fan
of 'em. However you can' just leave it, so either pull them off the frame
and find an extension bracket or go with the stainless. Another alternative,
Rubicon makes some short, angled steel line extesnions that work fine.
