Default Rough Country brake line issues.. Anyone else?

Merry Christmas boys and girls.

Just wanted to see if anyone else was having issues with Rough Country quality, especially the brake lines. I have blown three of there extended lines within a month. One of then was less than two weeks old, all of them less than a year. I have no booster modifications and the whole braking system is stock. Jeep is a 2012 unlimited.

In the last three months I've gone through the brake lines, one rear 2.2 shock, both lower adjustable arms, one upper adjustable, trac bar ends and I'm still chasing pops and groans. All components were installed correctly and always checked for torque.

Disappointing seeing I've never had an issue with RC on my other vehicles, although those were not DD....

I will say that they have excellent customer service. Every component that has failed they have replaced with a simple phone call and email.

Will over at RC is a good guy to work with.

Just seeing if anyone else has had similar issues?
