    I would appreciate the same "no problem" response since my proton is at stock level with no plans to lift. My other questions on a separate 'brake' discussion are pretty much answered and actually reinforced the need and sensible move to the braided lines. Keep VX'n! Scott

    im fully stock with the longer lines, no lift with stock tires, i went out offroading with them and had no problems.. even got high centered once and a jeep in our group actually snagged a rear line on a rock while we were out. no problems for me, just make sure who ever does your installation ties them back well. the only issue i had was when my vx was at the dealership the mechanic there complained that they were too long and that he refused to touch them because they were aftermarket.

    Calvin, thanks for the quick response, that is what I and Scott is looking for. I did contact Indy4X awhile back about this, but they never responded which didn't give a very good feeling about doing any business with them.

    Rowhard, thanks for asking your questions, I kinda got the feeling I was one of the few people who haven't had their VX lifted, I've used stainless steel brake lines in a couple of my cars (both present and former) but that was mainly b/c I was using them on track and I didn't like it when my pedal got spongy when the brake fliud got warm, haven't thought about it with the vx yet as that's something I know I'll NEVER be taking on track
