I'm lifting my 2000 grand vitara by 3inches and was wondering if I will need to extend any brake hoses? Cheers

i'd do all 3, 2 fronts & a rear... they''ll be too short & being 14yo they're probably due to be replaced & if you go braided there will be a minor gain in braking performance.

Is there a website you can buy these off mate? Or do you have to get them custom made? Cheers

Thanks for the help guys...

Jimny bits sell extended brake lines for the rear, do you know if I will need one with female or male fittings? Cheers

Just get them made at a reputable brake shop. They aren't ridiculously expensive.

Ok guys looks like the local brake shop it it. I noted with the 2-3inch lift kits such as calmini and the jimny bits one they only give you a brake line for the rear is that because the rear is all that needs extending? Cheers
