Bearings should be the same.
Are they new?
I like keeping new bearings with new races.
I think Braided lines are an "looks" item on these trucks, since you are not using your brakes like you would on a race car.
Just make sure you buy DOT approve braided lines.
Alot of the lines offered up for sale say, "not for highway use".

I used ECE's "conversion" rubber brake lines when I installed discs on my '69.
