First question, for a 5" lift, what shocks/length would be recommended? Not looking for real high end, just something equivalent to oem that's long enough and good brand.

Second question, what brand would you recommend for extended/braided stainless brake hoses?

I only have experience with skyjacker brake hoses and that was a good experience but it was on a much smaller truck that weighed half of what the megacab weighs. Looking to see if there is a better alternative.

Crown Performance for brake lines. You can get them to your length of choice custom made for a good price.
