Do I need extended brake lines for my lifted 99 ram?
 
Ok do I need to put on extended brake lines for wheeling for my lifted 99dodge ram? I have a rancho lift with 35's on it. Not sure of the lift size. I don't want to go wheeling and pop a brake line. Been there before. If I do need these, where do I buy them and what length? Thanks in advance guys. Also any other things I need to do to get the truck trail/mud ready? re-route breathers? Etc? This is my first dodge so I do not know the precautionary mods needed to make sure my daily driver will survive offroad since breaking down isn't an option as it's my only transportation.

the way to see if you need them is to jack the truck up with the tire on it and see if you can get max supension travel with out breaking a line

if your running a 4" lift youll probably be ok but as hotcummins said check your total flex to see if they bind. if your running a 6" i would recommend them definitely. you can get brake lines everywhere, any local 4x4 store, any hydraulics shops, or even alot of radiator and hose places can make them as well. you can normally get a front set of stainless braided lines for about 50 bucks.
