I was going to tag on Talkwrench's thread, but it would probably be a major thread drift. I'm about to start a brake changeover and would like advice. I'm going to front discs(scarebird) with power (thunderbirdbrakeparts). I would appreciate advice on tubing kits, flaring tools, and benders. I have most of the parts for the front, but am curious about rear brake cylinders as the 56 is 1/16 bigger yet uses the same shoes and might be interchangeable. Would there be any advantage to going to a larger wheel cylinder.



The Scarebird kit calls for mid 80's Lincoln discs which have sensors on the back, has anybody removed these sensors, it's a ring that looks to be pressed on, but no obvious way to pull it off.



Finally, there was a 56 4 door at the yard today. It was picked pretty clean but still a few usable parts on it. I took the backup lights. If anybody in central CA needs something obscure.
