Get on from a 94 YJ passenger side for both sides on the XJ. They are much longer and work well even with 8"s of lift. You'll eventually want more lift :)

theres nothing brand new i can drive. all these companies sell extended brake lines NO one makes ebrake lines?

NO. They'd make cables. Just go to the dealership or wrecking yard and see if you can get them from the YJ.

94 YJ passenger side - and prepare to extend/modify the threaded rod puller doodad as well. I've been putting off finishing mine up because my camera died, but a partial writeup is at http://www.yuccaman.com/jeep/ebrake.html

You will "never" need a longer one on the passenger side of a 97+,they are already about 5-6' long,after 6" you may need to address the drivers side!

If you're talking about the driver's side, you might be able to get away with just this:

but with my 5.5" lift, I think I'll just get a 2nd passenger side cable to replace the driver's side e brake cable.

I just got done doing a SOA swap on my 90 Commanche, and I have approximately 7 1/2 inches in the rear. I ended up hacing to take the ends( the parts that are fixed mounted to the bracket and to the bake of the drum), and buying a e-brake cable repair kit (advance auto in the help section) to make my e bake cable work. It isn't pretty, but a long bed Mj isn't easy to find parts for either
