With some places like 4wd.com they will list brake lines by life size.

I run 4.5" of lift and a custom 3 link. I have more travel than most people and the chevy lines upfront and dakota rear are long enough for me. They are around 7 inches longer.

I was a dummy awhile back and bought stainless braided ones, then they came out with teflon coated ones. ****.

If I had to get new ones, they'd be plain old stock chevy, durrango whatever.
