    I never went with extended brake lined on my old truck with dakars, but on my new truck I decided why not add them on there since I was ordering my springs from allpro anyway. When I was under my truck yesterday checking things out I got a little confused, can someone tell me wich one of these are the brake lines that the kit is for/needs to be extended? I always thought it was the one that connects to the leaf spring but now Im not sure.

    On my old tacoma with dakars flexed this one looked like it was the one everybody replaced

    If your last pic, I believe those 2 lines that connects to that bracket are the ones that need to be extended.

    Yeah once I saw them thats what I figured. Any idea what the other line is that attaches to the leafs and goes into the drum? E-brake maybe?

    As stated already...

    thick cables running along leaf springs are your e-brake cables.

    two thinner lines running down are your brake lines.
