lift coil questions....

so i picked some all pro off road lift coils and will be getting shocks next week so i am hoping to have it done next weekend. I saw a post about installing downy coils and how they had an extended brake line and had a bracket to relocate the brake load proportioning valve. My questions are: Are the extended brake lines necessary for 1.5" of lift? and is the relocation bracket necessary as well? thanks

The extended brake lines are only necessary if the shocks you are getting are longer travel than stock, as for the relocation bracket I do not know.

Thanks. Yeah i am putting bilsteins in the front and doesch tech mv 12's in the back with all pro coils

I have seen a guy that made a relocation bracket for the for the PVS and he said that it made a big difference in braking performance after he lifted it. I was going to make one out of a piece of steel plate that would raise it about an inch and half.
