i was curious if stock brake lines will fit +2 +1 arms? maybe the brand of a-arm matters, i really don't know.

Get the longer brake lines if you have longer a-arms, they stockers will either break, tear or won't allow full travel of the arms.

on the bottom, you should be ok. If you get a longer steering stem though, you'll need some extra length.

I have a +1 stem and +3 A-ARMS and I am fine with stock lines. I completely checked all clearances and its fine.

Keep your stock lines! :D

really? With my MSR bars which are a little higher and MAYBE .5" wider, I had to undo the brake line mount under the hood. With it still bolted, the line was stretching a little with the bars turned all the way to the left.
