Need longer front Brake lines.. Tight!!!

I have gotten a lot done this weekend on my truck. I let her down off jack stands and was able to move her on her own power.. While doing so I noticed the front brake lines are banjo string tight.. Truck is lowered 5/7 , I'm guessing that's why they are so tight.. What replacement hoses are you guys using to fix this and give them some relief?

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"
