Fitting SS Brake Lines
So recently I've been having my front passenger side brake caliper sticking on my 2000 v10 limited. Consequently my pads on that one side have uneven wear with the drivers and I will be swapping both calipers out with remand units, ebc yellow stuff pads and potentially new stainless steel braded brake lines. My rig came with a lift when I bought it and I was told that it was only a 2" lift but the guy didn't seem positive 
. How would I measure for the amount of lift in order to determine if I should go with stock length lines or the extended lines? Thanks for your guys' time.

To take tire size out of the mix, measure from the top center of the fenderwell lip to the center of the hub. Then we can compare it to other's measurements to determine the total over stock lift.
