2" susp. & 3" body lift-extended brake lines?

[SVO42]

I've done some searching and have basically ended up confused. I'm planning on a 2" suspension lift (2" coils and F-150 leaves, possibly shackles) and a 3" body lift. Will I need extended brake lines? If so, at what point? I plan on doing the 2" suspension lift first and leaving the stock wheels & tires on until I get a set of 33s on 15x10s ready to go on, then I'll do the body lift. Will I need longer brake lines at all, after the 2" susp. lift, or after both lifts?

Thanks in advance...

Nah. Stock lines will be long enough. Only the suspension lift will be a factor in extending the brake lines.

2" lift

Youll be fine with stock lines and 2" coils. And a bodylift dont affect the brake lines.(besides when you lift the body)

The stock brake lines are fine untill after 4" of suspension lift

i run 33x12.50 on 15x8 with a 3"body lift and they rub at full turn kinda bad i will be putting in some spacers and shackels for another 2" the 15x10 may be to wide i don`t know.
