Best quality extended brake lines?

What are your recommendations for a good set of extended brake lines? I saw the Wheeler's ones that looked decent but I don't know enough about the construction to know if they're good lines. What brands have you gone with?

 

Crown brake lines. They are in California. Can custom order whatever you need

 

I had Wheeler's lines in my previous truck. The front lines aren't long enough when paired with extended-travel coilovers. At full steering lock, the black strain relief boot sees a lot of bending. After a few years, the boot has split. Other aspects of the lines are OK, no issues with leaks or abrasion.

This time around I got All-Pro / Trail Gear brake lines. Build quality is just as good as the Wheeler's lines but the front ones are longer. The bigger 6-sided wrench flats may come in handy in a few years.

 

Good to know about the Wheelers lines. I'll stay away from those then. I saw they were only an inch longer than stock in the front.

 

Pro-tip: The Dorman clips that come with the All-Pro / Trail Gear lines are too tight. I reused the OEM clips since my truck was only 4 months old at the time. In your case I recommend having new Toyota clips ordered before the install. The OEM clips are fairly corrosion-resistant, but 13 years are 13 years.

 

Yeah for sure.

 

I’ve got a set of wheelers I opened the pack on then saw a thread about them failing so I’ve been gonna sell them and get some crowns.

 

Just an FYI Crown makes them for HS (where I got my set) and other online retailers that are just rebranded. I since got a custom set directly from crown made for my rear set up to the exact length I wanted. Great customer service.

 

I've got a set of Marlin Crawler rear break lines. Still running my front oem brake lines. No issues yet

 

You ext travel front what length crowns you use?

 

Just running whatever over HS sells. Went to 30" rear lines chevy 63 swap and 14" shocks. I can completely cycle the 14s going longer soon.

 

I had wheelers lines on my truck for about 6-7 years with no issues. Now i have dmz's in the rears and whatever total chaos uses in the front.

 

I see they even offer their brake line sets in orange. Interesting.

 

That's why I got mine in red. You can buy them by the set or order custom lengths

 

Lol you and your orange stuff!

 

I'm thinking orange or blue for the brake lines. Orange to match the truck obviously or blue to match my new ....

 

I want blue to match my truck/shocks you ext. travel? I cant decide what length +2 or +3

 

Marie@Headstrong can also set you up with a custom set, she did a custom length set for me. i think they use Crown iirc. it was a couple years ago.

 

Yeah extended travel. I might even go with one of the extra long +6 or +7 since it's only $5 more. I figure it will be added protection when working on the truck if the spindle is loose and I forget to tie it off.

 

I was looking at those too. Might see if she can do colored brake lines as well. @HeadStrong Off-Road ?
