I am only lifted about 2 to 2.5 inches over stock, do I need extended? From some searching, tt doesn't seem like I do. Where does everyone get their SS brake lines?

For the people who have done the upgrade it looks like over at many tacoma sites for example customtacos, many of the 6 lug tacomas are benefiting from the 16inch wheel 3rd gen calipers as there own "big brake ugprade" i love this hand me downs, tundra>4runner>tacoma hahaha

im running akebono remanned 199mm calipers with akebono act ceramic pads with brembo blanks. works awesome. no ss lines yet..hoping to do that on my next brake job. i also had to grind out some of the caliper to clearance LC wheels. when i rotated my wheels...the rears up front kinda got self machined for clearance..haha...

Ok Has any one done this mod on a tacoma? All I see are Runers doing this mod. My 98 taco with 15" ers suck in this area.....was thinks of doing this mod and juming up to either a 16 or 17 sequioa or tundra factory rim? Any suggestions.....And if at possible I would try and go biggest right off the bat. My wife hates my taco soley for the fact the braking sucks.....thanks

Ya I figured thats why I would grab a set of 16 or 17's....but was just most curious was there a difference with the tacos that would stop me. and do you think the 17 inchers would keep me from grinding to fit?

If SS lines work wonders on a truck like they do on a motorcycle, I'd definately take the time to install them if doing a complete new brake setup.
