    They're not needed to compensate for the lift but many do them for the marginally better braking performance or piece of mind, myself included.

    what about when you go off road causing the suspension to flex a lot, will the stock brake lines still be enough?

    OME suspension with some new wheels & tires to match this weekend, love the look but I gotta figure out how to get the handling a little better. Presently a bit squirrelly at high speeds, either gonna wait until I get my Demello bumper & winch installed to see if that helps or go ahead and bite the bullet and get new UCAs.

    My rear brake lines needed to be longer going w/Dakar leaf pack & the 3-5" lift Fox 2.0 RR rear shocks. I forgot about installing them when I went to Discount to get new tires mounted. When they used the vehicle lift, my rear brake lines got stretched so much they were slightly leaking fluid.

    I got an alignment with the suspension, by the Toyota dealer. I haven't measured it, supposed to be 2.5in but it might be riding a little higher since the front coils are made to be carrying a heavier constant load.

    hhmm...did you get the alignment numbers? some folks have to get aftermarket UCA's with a 2.5 lift to get their alignment on point. BTW your truck is looking good.

    Contact @EddyRRT with SOS concepts. He does great work and great customer service. This is his ront bumper in aluminum.



    He will make you a rear with dual swingouts I don't think it's listed in his website yet though. I also have his Skids which he'll make in steel or aluminum
