3 inch lift brake line info/question
I was doing some comparison and need some peoples opinion on what lines to run for a 3 inch lift on a 99XJ. Here is what i have put together...
1995 YJ
FR L=20.75
FR R=20.75
Rear=17.31
1999 XJ
FR L=18.25
FR R=18.25
Rear=15
So when looking at all of this changing the lines to YJ lines would give me the length that i need for a 3 inch lift. My real question is if the banjo connections are the same? I don't trust internet pictures since most of the time they are generic stock photos. Im sure the rear is probably the same but i wonder about the front? Anybody who has any input on this would be much appreciated!

I put 96 chevy 2 wheel drive front break lines on mine with a 4.5" lift. I had to use to copper washers on banjo end is the only thing I did.

so did you stack two on the head side of the banjo bolt, or on the underside of the brake line fitting where it sits on the caliper? just so i have it in my head how its needs done, i really can't bring myself to spend 100+ on extended front and rear brake lines when there are easier and cheaper options out there!
