My rear brake lines are plenty long enough for flexing, but my e-brake cables limit flex. Following the lift install instructions I removed the springs that hold them up to the undercarriage, but that still has them taught with the jeep just sitting level. Any quick answers for me?

Haha, fair enough. I even looked up the numbers stamped on the springs when my cousin and I couldn't get them to fit. The numbers brought up a million results of "ROUGH COUNTRY 4.5" LIFT LEAF SPRINGS" on google. With that we broke out the jacks and made them work.

Thanks, I just read that article. When I get on a computer rather than my blackberry I will have to check and see what local autoparts places are getting for the stock emergency brake cables.

Would you recommend SS brake lines or stock yj lines?
