G'day Crew,

Hoping someone can help me with some brake stuffing around. I'm gettting geared up to get a 12HT + H55 into my HJ47, plus taking the HJ61's front discs etc.

Looking for assistance on the below:

1) I have got rotors and pads + knuckle kit + caliper rebuild kit for a HJ61, that should be fine. Wondering if anyone knows if there are soft-lines available to replace the axle-caliper hardlines similar to an 80 series factory setup?

2)I would like to lose the transfer park brake and go to the 60 series setup on the rear axle. Can I take the backing plates off the 61 and use drum + shoes etc for the 61 on the 47 axle?

3) If I take the backing plate etc off the 61, do I need to use 61 spindles, hub etc or can I stick with 40?

3) Do I want a HJ61 brake master? If so, do I take the booster from the 60 as well or is it no better than the HJ47's?

Lastly, pic of collecting the 47 as it sits now, just because...

I've got the discs on the front, 60 series knuckles, 40 series birfields. Haven't done anything with the back yet and haven't got the booster/master sorted
