Default lift kit install

well im a new member. i am currently looking at the different brands of lifts there are out there. i am wanting to do a 3'' or 4'' to run 35s. but alot of the kits come with the extended brake lines and man i hate brakes. I am gonna do the install myself. I like doing the hands on part as well as go out and test out the new gear. So i am wondering if anyone has installed these brake lines and have had any problems bleeding them or any problems with the computer on the jeep?

You can get brake line brackets. A lift i suggest is rock krawler, teraflex and aev. If your looking for the best on road riding lift i would go with aev.

And doing brake lines aren't that bad. You can YouTube big brake kit by teraflex and they show you how to bleed the brakes

I did a RK 2.5 stock mod. Netted over 3in. and used brake line drop brackets. Added RK LCA's to dial in castor. Plenty of room for 35's. Bleeding brakes is not that big of a deal. Having a buddy on the pedal is the quickest way IMO. Those hand held brake bleeders take more time.
