3" rusty's lift...brakeline extension??

Just my $0.02 but I run 4.5" of lift in the rear and I still use the stock brake line. I have done nothing to it, everything is just like it was when it was brand new. Even at full drop the brake line is not tight, there is still some play with it. Now with more then 4.5" in the rear I would put on a longer brake line but since you are running 3" of lift I dont think you need too.

on my '89 as soon as i went 4.5 inches without flexing that was it for the brake line. not sure what year your rig is, maybe they had longer lines on certain years? i just know on mine there was no way i could go offroad and droop my axle without longer lines.
