   basically picking up vtr rear beam this thursday, fitting it sunday myself. at the moment i have a westcoast drum beam, the new beam comes with calipers etc. do i need to buy the brake lines that go from the front reservoir to the rear and if i dont know what the brake fluid is so do i have to re-bleed the whole system back and the front aswell?

   you wont need to buy new lines no you can use the west lines
   
   the fluid will be dot4
   and you only need to bleed the rears
