    Had shackles and Rough Country N3 (0-3.5” lift) shocks installed today. The local shop said they didn’t bolt the line back to the factory location because they were afraid that it would put too much tension on the line.
    Has anyone else experienced this? Did you buy longer brake lines, drop bracket etc.?

    Thanks!

    I added an extension on the bracket that holds the wheel speed sensor wires when I did Coachbuilder +2 shackles. Don't remember how my brake lines looked but I didn't think they were at risk with the +2s.

    Lift kits usually include line bracket extensions. They're basically slender pieces of flat metal with bolt holes on either end.
