    Mine came in the mail today! Tires came in the mail 2 days ago, now all I have to do is wait for 4WheelParts to un-drop the ball and get me my rims I ordered FIRST!

    Question, I did the group buy on stainless-steel brake lines and noticed lines supplied with the MaxTrac Spindles are a little longer than what I got with the group buy. Was there slack with the supplied brake lines or should I swap out my group buy lines for the added length? Edit: As I sit here I'm getting royally pissed rereading previous post concerning brake line length. I told the group buy guy I needed lines long enough for 5" lift on the front and 4" lift on the rear and he shorts me on the length of the front lines....as you can tell I'm not looking forward to replacing the front brake lines...AGAIN!

    I'll just play it by ear I guess, if I need to change them out I'll just do it at the shop. My lines weren't extremely hard to change out, figuring out what the F I was doing was probably the hardest, and the fact that I don't feel like I'm bleeding the brakes 100% perfect kind of gets to me.

    It's funny, I was looking and my Rear stock brake lines would be PERFECT extended brake lines for the front of my truck or anybodys truck, they're almost the exact length as the Maxtrac lines, only a little longer.

    I got mine in the mail today too! That was fast...heavy box!...dude these things are massive, compared to stock is a joke..


    Sux about the lines...well you get a second shot to make sure no airs in there...hehe...I was going to buy the GB lines too but decided on just getting the all pro rears. $60 and I got the fronts with the spindles.

    You could sell them...I'm sure it's for 3" lift on accident, they'll sell quick and get the all pro lines! Haha

    The extra lift of my springs dont change the attachment points for the brake line. How much shorter are the ones you have on now? The ones that come with it are barely long enough in my opinion... I had to bend the brackets alot. I just did it at full droop at and full turn.
