I switched over to disc brakes up front and went with the braided stainless as part of my package. They have a little less expansion and may result in a firmer pedal but new rubber lines should be perfectly fine, especially for drum brakes.I also replaced all the orig hard lines with a stainless set from In Line Tube. Yes they have pre-bent steel or st steel lines for 61-63 F85s. They fit perfect but sent me the wrong front to back line first time. I called them and sent pics of my orig and they matched it up and sent the correct one. Had to fab a couple of small lines due to my disc brake conversion.
