Which lines are you wanting to replace. I bought all mine from Rough Country and they had a near stock price even though they are longer and stronger.
I still have my front ones I never installed them I just pulled the torx screw out and straigtened the hard line then remounted lower.
The rear there isn't much getting away from getting a new line since Howler doesnt sell his extender anymore.
As far as Tie rod, I think it is time for you to do a ZJ steering upgrade. You can get the whole set at a JY for prolly 40 bucks

Its easy as pie to get a longer line... YJ lines are about 4 inches longer than XJ lines.
The rear??? IIRC the Dakota lines are longer and a match. But I might be confusing Comanches and Cherokees on this one.
