Default ZJ Disc to XJ Brake Lines ?

I see people doing all kinds of different routes when it comes to the soft brake lines. Some use YJs for an additional 2", some use the OEM ZJs ? I'm concerned with which would be the best line for up to 3" lift, even considering aftermarket products. I like the ones on ebay that are braided SSTL with a clear cover. I will be redoing all of the hard lines. Either ordering a whole kit in SSTL, or maybe even making them myself. I want to get the ends finished first. I have a drum that's rubbing, dont want to spend a dime on it, going on to better things. What is the best hard line material?

I wasn't sure if there was any better new material for lines. I think I'm going to just order a complete set of the stainless Inline brake lines with thier matching soft braided lines to the calipers. Going to just go ahead and buy a vacuum pump to flush and refill it all, been wanting one anyway.

Good idea. Hobo Freight has an air powered vacuum pump that is the ****.
