On my 98 I have a rc full leaf pack 4.5 inch lift. I got the crown lines for I think it was 4-6" of lift, I put them up to the old lines and they seem to have too much bend in them. Is this the case or is that not that big of a deal?

As long as they aren't getting hung up in stuff you should be fine.
I use one of those tiny little bungee cords to keep them out of the way.

I think my front lines are 28" long and I don't have any problems. like they said, as long as the lines aren't rubbing anything or able to get into a pinch area then you'll be fine.

November issue of Jp they came up with a nifty cheap way to hold the front lines out of the way and directed where to go. Article called LJ RESURRECTION. Take some real large zip ties (wide, length don't matter)make a 2 inch loop around the break line with one or to where it slides freely, then with another, zip it tight to the shock body. Just judge where you need it be where it keeps it out of the tire and spring
