I think about 4 inches is the max....anymore than that and you have to extend things.

I put a 4" lift on my 76 Chevy truck and had to have a longer rear flexible brake line.

you can go a 4inch but that is really stretching it, one bump and it will get ripped off that bracket and break the line, personal experience.
