Well I got the rest of my rusty kit. I think ?

I miss understood what exactly came with the kit. My fault I should have read it better.

I thought it came with new extended brake lines and it didn't but it did come with a brake line extender Im guessing that's for the rear axle.

I called crawlech and there checking in on it so Im waiting for them to call back and while I was waiting I went to rustys site and reread the info on the 4" kit. So maybe I got it all.

Does anyone knows if the rusty 4" kit needs longer brake lines or not?

I don't want to be out wheeling and have to worry about the brake lines ripping open when flexing.

thanks for any replies

yeah, you got exactly what was supposed to come with the kit. I used the extended bracket on my rear axle a everything works fine. There is still plenty of slack in the lines for flex.

I have the Rusty's 4". I didn't even put the extender on. I was going to put new extended brakelines on eventually but I have bigger fish to fry.
Good Luck with the lift. You did soak everything...right?

The front is fine, the rear will need to use the drop down bracket...or in my cas ethe bracket wouldent work, so i just bent the steel line down about 5" further down.

Yeah I soaked everything a few times. ;)
