Default Question about brake lines

I am planning on putting a 6 inch lift in my f150 and am looking into extended brake lines. Is there a more affordable option than buying the stainless steel braided lines? And does anyone know if f250 or 350 brake lines are longer?

I'm just trying to build this thing as cost effectively as possible as I still have to get the locking hubs and whatnot.

They don't need to be fancy stainless lines but they will need to be extended.

F250 and F350 hoses use different fittings, IIRC.

Unfortunately there is no cost effective way to lift a TTB - anything past an 1.5" or so and it becomes expensive real quick.

If you can find a 250 or 350 in the scrapyard, they have a bolt on hose mount which would allow you to move your steel line/ rubber hose junction to a better spot.
