Default rear brake line

Hi
I have an OME 2" lift (got around 3"), I have noticed at full flex, the rear brake line is quite tight. Is the only easy way to fix this problem extending the brake lines?

Thanks

try wooders or ozadventure I believe they have a relocation bracket, the other option is longer brake lines.

I have the OME lift and noticed the same thing and did not like the idea the rubber brake lines was being used as a limiting strap, so last weekend I installed some crown extended brake lines.

$125USD plus shipping for front and rear, I had some other stuff shiped at the same time so I would estimate between $40 to $50USD.

a quick easy fix is a drop bracket for the brake lines which is inexpensive and can probably make up yourself. Extended brakelines is more ideal however
