I lifted my b2. Will f150 stock flex hoses work instead of paying a fortune on extended b2 flex hoses??
 
Yes, I can't remember exactly which year I used but it worked for me. IIRC I had to bend the metal portion to fit better. I did this;

"I used brake lines; Raybestos: BH 38622, BH 38623, as in this article;http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/ReplacementBrakeLine_Front.html. I pried off the metal clip that are half way down the line by using a vise and a large flat screwdriver. I also replaced the brake line between the two sides with a pre-made 60" line connector piece. The drivers side you have to get a 3 hole junction block and a 8" pre-made line to replace the drivers side line that has the hole for the 60" line connector."

"Brake lines,
I used the ones suggested in this article http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/ReplacementBrakeLine_Front.html.

I removed the metal piece in the center.
One of my tires ate through the passenger side line Saturday just as I was going to line up for the last race of the day:sad:. I went to town and found a f-150 line, a bit shorter, that works with some tweaking.Also added a spring to keep the line away from the tire.
The line that got ate,

The second pic is fully drooped with an STX Highrider 'lift' ~ 2" lift on a '97 ranger.
