    Is there any issues or parts that need to be replaced to accommodate 3” in the rear properly? I have 2” now and wanting to get some rake. Anything needed to do to the brake lines, upgraded rear links/sway bar end links, etc.

    Thanks:cheers:

    Yes, you’ll need to do all that, but the big question is to not get so high that the vehicle gets too ungainly and loses it’s centre of balance and driveability. So it also depends on what is happening in the front. Lots of guys have extreme lifts though because that’s what they like. Not sure it gives any advantage off road.

    Has anybody that did 3” in the rear, find any issues with the stock brake lines? I’m not sure if at full droop if the stock brake lines would suffice, but haven’t found concrete evidence that they do/don’t. I’ll be installing 3” lift springs here soon, so that’s why I’m wondering.
