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???

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.
