Who has put extended brake lines on the front of their Sierra?

I'm in a bit of a pickle because I haven't done any of my intended suspension mods (RUF) so I don't know what sort of travel i'm going to end up with. BUT I need to get some new brakes lines now so I can put these rebuilt calipers on.

SO, how long should I go???

how fancy a RUF you going to go?
I reckon 6" would be more than heaps, pretty sure thats how much longer swift ones are
hmmm 6" might even be too much

I'll be trying to get the springs to sit pretty flat and use 35mm longer shackles to get a bit extra droop. I'm pretty sure i'll have to move the shackle mount forward a little. I'm not sure how tat adds up on Ryce's Fancy Scale :oops:

NFI on the swift ones, haven't seen them. I was thinking about getting some of those but I don't think they will work on the Vit calipers???

As far as I can remember the Sierra ones screw straight into the caliper. The Vit ones I have use banjo bolts.
