#1 Problem       In the
middle of doing front
brakes on my 54, to
include new wheel
cylinders, brake hoses
and shoes.  Discovered a
good half a teaspoon of
mud in the wheel
cylinders.  Replaced
rear wheel cylinders a
few months ago and no
mud.  Also decided to
replace 3/16 front brake
line on left and right
and 1/4  line going from
side to side.  What else
should I do to 
alleviate this problem?

#2 Problem    While
doing the front brakes, 
I noticed a whole lot of
oil on my right rear
wheel.  Pulled the wheel
and the drum.  The is a
hole in between two of
the wheel studs and oil
is coming out of that
hole.  Everything on the
inside of the drum is
"moist".  What in the
heck has occurred there?
Temporary solution.....I
hear a little Budweiser
singing to me.... 
Happy Saturday!
