Will I need a brake line extension with Bilstein 5160 and Dakar heavy pack (EL095R)?

Hello!

2018 DCOR short-bed here.

I'll be getting Bilstein 5160's + heavy Dakars in the rear and 6112's in the front installed on Wednesday. One thing I haven't discussed with the shop is extended brake lines. Would you consider this a requirement for the setup I'm going with?

Thanks

 

No. 5160's are all of like 1in longer than stock shocks, you will be fine.

 

Thank you for the quick reply.

 

The only issue you will have is the driver’s side parking brake cable bracket at full droop. I used a zip tie.

 

I got the same setup (and love it. 4wheelparts installed them and tested the flexing and said the extended lines weren’t needed.

 

I’m installing mine and they do not reach the tapped hole in the leaf pack bracket.

tips?
