For those of you with lifts, which brakeline extension?

I have King remote resi front and rear and OME Dakar springs in the rear. I believe I only need to put extended brake lines on the rear.

Does anyone have a recommendation on what to get? How much length should I get +2?

I believe my truck is sitting about 2.5-3.0 inches higher then stock.

Thanks!

 

If its already installed whats the issue? My rear shocks came with a little block thing for the rear brake line bracket but im only like 2" up. Brake cables seem to be more an issue than lines for me though if i went higher

Edit: bad pic but the black block in there came with my bilstein 5160's. Didnt think it was needed but since i had it i threw it on

 

My concern is under articulation while offroad. Considering these: http://store.sdhqoffroad.com/tacomabrakelinekits.aspx

 

I think there's only like one manufacturer making these for everyone, but if they're not all *actually* the same, they're all pretty much the same.

I know a lot of people (myself included) who have wheelers: They have +2, +4, as well as fronts if you feel you need them.

 

i got +4 to be safe! doesn't hurt to have it longer

If you are going to get extended, Stainless Steel braided, flexible brake lines to replace the stock rubber brake lines, you will want to replace all four to retain proper brake performance & feel. The stock rubber lines swell when brake pressure is applied, the braided lines expand very little. If you mix the two, initially the brakes with braided lines will receive higher pressure than the stock lines, and it is noticeable in brake foot feel.

 

+4 front and rear?

 

I have the same. Lines were tight getting this in there. Couldn't imagine getting much more under it.

 

Can I use extended lines instead of a break line spacer?

Anyone know?

I was swapping my diffs and unbolting the hardline (per instructions) and was like WTF is this block. I have a small one I must’ve put on with my 5160.

here’s what I don’t get. Why?
I have extended rear SS lines. As one should.

is Bilstein expecting folks to do things janky-style with lift and stock lines hence then including a puck?

I got the puck installed again when I put it back together but am not a fan of the angle, stress tension on the hardline, and how hard it makes it to line up and bolt in.
Oh well. It’s on there now. And has been there some time without issue.

 

I started with this kit for the rear brake lines spacer and parking brake cable spacer brakets, and later went to 4" extended rear brake lines from Yotomafia, keeping only the parking brake cable spacers from the original kit.
