On my old cherokee I had a 4.5" RC lift and it flexed out just fine with just bending the hard lines straight. Probably good measure to eventually get something a little longer cuz you never know what may happen on the trail.

I still think the YJ lines are more than enough extension. You add three inches of lift, add three inches of brake line. In fact, most three inch lift kits don't even call for the extensions. Adding three inches should be more than enough extension to provide for adequate flex without exceeding what's necessary and placing the hoses at risk of being damaged during harder rides. Anyhow, here are the part numbers for the YJ hoses:
Rear: Dorman H38845
Front Left: Dorman H38862
Front Right: Dorman H38861
Rear: Dorman H38845
Front Left: Dorman H38862
Front Right: Dorman H38861
