Ok I flex.. i flex real good.. now the problem is: the brake lines in the rear arent long enough.

I search. everyone says get longer brake lines..etc.. but never where.. that is what i need. Dont care if the are stainless steel, rubber, what ever..
for a 2000 xls. and yes i bend the hard line as much as i could but need a little more to be safe. (i was using the brake lines like limit straps today)

zoom in the pic and you'll see what i mean

I just checked Superlift, Skyjacker, and Trailmaster and they only had extended brake lines for 91-94 Explorers...which is really stupid considering Superlift and Trailmaster make lifts for 95+ :confused: I'd personally just use the brake line as a limiting strap, it'd save you the money of buying those.















(If you or anyone else does this, Bryan Mitchell takes no responsibility in your damages) :D
 






I don't know, but would 1st gen ones work for you(4-8" lift)? I don't know since you've got rear discs....

Enter on Summitracing.com = SJA-RBL35 (rear ext. brake line kit by Skyjacker)
 






exactly my problem.. hopefully someone knows this...
 












the only problem you will run into is what type of flares are on the ends of the brake lines. I would bend up some custom lines and then go with that -- but you might want to take it to a shop to see what they can do.

hoping someone made them or knew if like an f150 would work on it.
