Any pictures? I took a look at mine and any part that would get stretched is a hard line, am I missing something? Also does anything have to be done with the parking brake?

I bought the new brake line, but the ends on my old line were so rusty I was risking stripping or breaking the hardline connected to it, so I just disconnected the one side I could get loose and dropped the axle, then reconnected the end when I put everything back together and bled the brake system. Nothing had to be done with the ebrake, but you do have to get the rear of the truck pretty high, I had to use a hi-lift, which I really didn't like doing, and then add jackstands about at max height. If you know anyone who has access to shop lift, I'd recommend that to be safe or at least two hi-lifts and go very very slowly.

I have ironman coils and no rear sway bar, don't think PO added longer lines. I'd like to see which lines are actually. Getting replaced, I may be overlooking something but seems. Any line that would be stretched is a hard line.

I just climbed under to snap a picture, it's only the one line highlighted.
Ooh I see now, thank you I appreciate it.
