Brake lines for stock XJ

So I am redoing my entire brake system- new rotors, calipers, pads, knuckles. Going to replace the rubber section of the brake line too. Is there any need to get a longer and/or braided line on a stock XJ. It hasn't ever been a problem, don't do much core wheeling just fishing and camping mostly, but I plan on getting disconnects soon and am wondering if a stock xj with end links off on the trail might require more/stronger brake line. Any opinions appreciated, thx-

If you feel you need more, relocate the hard brake line for the front.
 
If you live in an area that gets snow and they salt the roads I'd recommend copper nickel for the hard lines never have to replace them again
