1999 F-150 Lift Question
I have installed a 3.5" Fabtech spindle lift on my truck, and I would like to raise it another 1.5 - 2.5" using Daystar spacers, or another option is to add a 2" body lift. However, my brake lines do not seem long enough. Is an extended brake line kit available, or will brackets need relocation? Also, is there anything else I should be aware of?Thank you.

I'm assuming you are 2wd. You can find extended brake lines on Fabtech's website, or any other aftermarket truck accessory website. Hell, I bet you could drive into Les Schwabs and order some.
And yes, there is something you should be aware of before installing spacers on top of your existing lift. Ball Joints! Alignments! Poor Stability! Poor tire wear! - These are phrases you will soon get used to after overexerting your front end with hillbilly-ish lifts.
