Default Extended brake lines for a 1995

I just got a lift kit, 2" Terrafirma MD Pro Sport, and I have questions about extended brake lines as a result:

1 - Do I need them for my lift?

2 - the ones I've found online seem to differentiate the 1995s from the 96-98s, the 95s have only the fronts available, why? What's the difference and where would I get extended rears for mine?

Do you have abs?

The only difference I can think of is that non-abs would probably only have 3 hoses instead of 4. At the rear axle there would be one hose and a T instead of two hoses.

I have ABS. Hmm interesting, so maybe the websites are wrong and I can use the set of 4 lines listed for 96 and newer?

I don't remember, they were from a quick google on my phone, I should have searched harder. The Atlantic British ones look like the ticket.

Now as for my other question, anyone know if I need them for my lift?

No. You don't need them. But aren't a bad idea. For perspective, I've been riding on 2" of lift for two years with hard wheeling and no extended lines

Hmm ok good to know, you haven't had to take any special precautions to run the stock lines?
