Re: WTB extended front brake lines
I used 2wd brake hoses for my truck. I have to take a grinder to the caliper to get the line to sit flush to the rear of the caliper (there was a raised portion for a round banjo fitting, and 2wd have a square flange). I ground the rear of the caliper flat (30 secs. at most, could be done with a dremel if you don't have a grinder). I have not had any problems, or leaks, and I would say I MIGHT be able to handle a 6" lift without issue......I know 4" isn't a problem.
I had to go to NAPA to get the lines.....I think I bought lines for an 82 C10. good luck!

Re: WTB extended front brake lines
I went to the parts store and got stock hoses for a late 70s Chevy K10 since there were none for a 67-72 in stock.They are long enough with about a 6" lift.I've got 5" lift springs up front on mine and had no issues using those lines.The hoses were for metric banjo bolts though and mine has the standard banjo bolt being a Dana 44...

Re: WTB extended front brake lines
Check out your local stock car racing parts store. Locally, I use Smileys. Good prices. Big selection.
