Not sure that I understand the question. Are you asking if the original brakes will stop the truck with 35" tires? The answer is yes, no worries. The truck will not stop as well as when it had little tires, but you will be alright with what you have. Later down the road if you are not satisfied with the braking power, you might consider a rear disc conversion, if the truck is not already equiped with them. Hope that was what you were looking for.

As long as you install extended braske lines it should be fine.

It should already have extended brake lines if it's already lifted on the tires.
