Longer front brake lines for Sierra?

Post by ausyota »

Does anyone know if there is an off the shelf brake line that is 2 or 3 inches longer than standard from a different vehicle or something?

I know you can buy longer brake lines from 4wd shops but Im just wondering if there is a cheaper alternative.

What sort of money does it cost if I just take the old lines as a sample into a brake shop and say can you make me a pair that is 2 inches longer.

Look at the swift or vit ones.

I extended my lines 2 inches to compensate for the bodylift as i didnt want to move lines or anything. I took the old hoses to ABS and they made new ones with new fittings as i dont think you can reuse the fittings.
Cost me $60 for two lines.
The fittings are the expensive part, as they are jap metric which isnt very common, especially the female fittings.
