Default What year rear brake hose from a Dakota will fit XJ?

I just put in a lift and need a longer brake hose for rear. What year and 2 or 4 wheel drive? I cant drive it cuz my hose is almost maxed just sitting there. I need to get it going . Thanks. Sorry ,dont have time to search. I have heard the Dakota hoses are 6in longer than XJ. I hope I heard right.

C-mon guys . I really need help. I need to fix this today. I have to drive it to work tonight. Im worried that if I hit too big a pot hole it may brake my hose.Its pretty much maxed just sitting still. Or any brake hose that is longer that will fit my 96 XJ.

I've heard of guys using early ford 1/2 ton, laote eighties, early 90's
if you are handy with brakeline and a flaring tool u can adapt alomst any line you want as long as you have the fitting to fit the new hose.
