I replaced the front brake lines on my '93 Olds 88 LSS with stainless steel but the set for the rear was missing a part so I still have the original brake lines for the rear drums. Even with just the one set, I noticed a welcome improvement in pedal firmness and stopping power and the traction control still operates. I also swapped out the original lines for stainless steel on my 2003 Evo but there was less improvement than on the Olds even though all four lines were replaced. I assume this is because the Evo stock lines were much newer and probably better engineered.

Why would you want to replace all the brake lines? You can flush the entire system and install fresh DOT3 brake fluid. I can see no reason to replace all the brake lines. Why are you doing this? Unless your brake lines are rotted out or someone has cut them... there is no reason to replace all four lines.

You have to remove the caliper completely except the brake lines. Then the pads will slide in a groove on each side of your rotor. Then you should be able to reinstall your calipers and that should take care of it.
