Would anyone recommend new brake lines with the 3.5 lift?

Rock krawler kits come with brake lines included.

Rock Krawler seems to be a great company to work with. I talked to a tech support guy and have received a lot of good help.
I've looked into it a bit and they seem to be in the $500 mark for a front. I'll worry about it when my stock one breaks

Thanks,
Sean

You will definitely need a new front drive shaft or exhaust spacers with a 2012. Do it right the first time and get a new front drive shaft.

Do I need to change my drive shafts to use your kit?

On all pre-2012 JKs equipped with automatic transmissions, you will need to replace your front driveshaft with a narrower unit.On all pre-2012 JKs equipped with manual transmissions, you will not need to replace your front driveshaft.On all 2012 JKs equipped with automatic or manual transmissions, you will not need to replace your front driveshaft.Last Updated on Thursday, 22 December 2011 07:56

Per aev website about 3.5+
