to mods: if it belongs somewhere else, please move.
Background:
I just picked up a 1992 Explorer 4x4 as a second car/project vehicle. I'm not planning on going nuts with this as the goal is simple: make it dead nuts reliable, and make it just a tad more capable for what it'll see 99.9999999999% of the time: the occasional drive down the beach, curb hopping, and random unpaved roads.
The goal:
2" lift via shackles and leveling coils
The problem:
I'm writing up the parts list of what I need to order (coils, shocks, shackles, tires), and, while thinking of past builds, I realized something:
Do you really need longer brake lines on an Explorer running such a small lift?
So would it be recommendable to get longer brake lines, or can I leave them as is?
Thanks in advance y'all.
