Title: brake lines
Post by: Eagle Jeeper on March 22, 2009, 08:56:47 AM

I'm looking for some info from anybody running about 10" of lift on a YJ or similar on what they are using for extended brake lines. I'm hoping to go the cheapest route if there was something of off a chevy at napa or something.

Thanks

I got mine custom built at Greenline hose, across MCloed trail from the store at the bottom of the hill.
4 hoses cost me $150-$200. pastic coated steel braid. TC and DOT approved
