Maybe not TOTALLY "must have" for a lift, but WAY worth the investment for the increased firmness in the pedal.
Why risk a wreck due to over stressed brake lines ?
And yes, I have been in a car wreck due to brake line failure.

3" BL
3" lift
33" tires
steel brake lines
manual hubs
swaybar disconnects... all from Matt
but I digress. I have had the Amigo lifted for 7 years now. Still have the factory lines. Never did anything to them when I lifted it originally. I am putting on the Indy4x set of lines this week though. My buddy ordered me a set when we did the parts order.
Take care,

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

oh ok, it's just i want the lift but can't get the brake lines yet, but just wanted to know if its safe with the stock 1s when i get it lifted. thanks guys.

So, I only have a slight lift, enough to run a 31.5 inch tire. (Torsion bars were cranked to level it) Will I have a problem with these longer lines? And no, I'm not going to be lifting it anymore so sometime in the future isn't a issue.

Shouldn't be a problem, you'll just have a bit more slack.

Thats what I'm worried about, possible chaffing or flexing/kinking. Just hoping someone with a non lifted VX would jump in with a 'Ain't no problem' response.

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
