Brake line help....
ok guys...im fairly new to 4wd toyotas and am buying 4" lift leaf springs tomorrow and im going to need brake lines....but my question is, can i extend my brake lines w/o buying new ones...i heard that i can take thre rear axle brake lines and hook them up somehow to the ones on the front axle to extend them...i dont know if this is true....by the way my set up for my 80 is going to 4"-5" of lift w/ 35's and 4:88's and a locker in the rear....does anyone see anything wrong w/ this set up???? (just lookin to do it right) Thanks guys!!!!

Is your Lift a kit or just leafs? Make sure you get a drop drag link on there as well to keep your steering working. You really do need new front lines, ive seen people just cutting the mount off the frame and just letting it 'float' there but i dont suggest that. On full drop your brake lines could snap or crack a hard line, and your front D-shaft might come apart on droop. but good luck with it
