Ryan, I did a complete brake job on my 1955 Cameo this year and bought
everything from the Truck Shop in Orange, CA. There was no groaning and I
made only one visit. Every single piece was in stock including pre-bent
steel lines, all five cylinders, flex lines, and their complete hardware kit
in a bag included all clips, adjusters, etc. www.truckandcarshop.com
