so before i drop the cash on a 3" body lift. i just wanna make sure from someone who has a 2.5" levleing kit and 3" body lift. that i dont need longer brake lines or nothin. i have read many articles on here and other places, that say i dont need anything extra. but i just wanna triple check. its my only driver so i dont wanna get halfway done and then realize i need something else. thanks yal.

I'm sorry I can't help. But you could you possibly post a thread with a worse title? How is it going to help anyone doing a search with the same question? Come on man, you should know better by know.

Shouldn't need longer soft lines, may have to rearrange the hard lines from the master to the frame though. They should have enough excess that you can tweak 'em though.

I didnt put new longer brake lines on mine but if you put your truck on a automotive lift (like one at a shop) you can see that your brake lines and vaccuum lines to your front axle actuator will be almost maxed out at full droop. Would recommend if planning on off roading
