Hello, I've been lurking here since I bought my XJ a couple weeks back. I need to do my first (very minor) upgrade and have a question:
I've got a 2000 XJ with a 5.5" RE lift and 33s. The brake lines it has currently are about 18" and rubber. I want to go with some braided stainless I'll have custom made for me at EVCO, but I'm not sure what size to go with...
I've seen online that most upgraded SS lines are 22" and those are for a 4-6" lift. I'm wondering if I should go a little longer since I'm near the top of that range? I was thinking more like 24".
I'm planning on getting a long-arm kit in the future and want to be prepared for all that flex! Plus, currently it seems that my brake lines are my limiting factor...
Thanks for the help,
aaron
