  Hmmm, just an FYI; this advice is worth what you paid for it... ;-)

But... You might want to consider checking out the brake line yourself
first. If it is possible to tie it off somehow I might be inclined to
do that rather than have them shorten it . Reason being, if you ever
decide to put a lift on it, long brake lines are nice. :-) I had to
unbolt some brackets when I lifted my Ram and was able to get away with
the stock lines, but if they had been any shorter, I would have needed
new lines. Anyway, something to think about if you're a cheapskate
like me. ;-)
