I don't think there really is much of a line conversion. I just removed the drums, bolted on the caliper bracket, slid the rotors on, and bolted the calipers on. As for the lines, I disconnected the 2 sections of lines that came off the T. I took them to a hose shop and had them flare a couple fittings on (Wilwood D154 calipers are metric), and reinstalled.
Hope this helps you. It's actually the easiest task to do.

Think this is what your looking for.

You can kinda see them in this last picture although they run along the front side of the rear end housing.

It is 3/16 hard line with AN-4 fittings and hose. Normally I would use -3 hose with 3/16 line but I had a bunch of used -4 steel fittings and brake hoses lying around so it got used here.
This is my daily thrasher so thats why it aint polished and shinny. It gets drove alot of rough miles. .
