I heard that people using Lincoln rear calipers with parking brake included. I even heard that those are the same ones Bear is using.
Is this tru and if yes, what year lincoln must I search for?

I believe that Baer uses the 1LE Camaro or 88 - 96 Corvette HD option calipers for many of the rear brake kits. Those are the aluminium PBR single piston calipers.

No, they're definitely not the same. I'm sure others will chime in with more specifics but I can only tell you that the Granada/Versailles brakes that are often sought after are very different from what Baer uses. If after you do your research you decide to go the lincoln route, I have a complete set of new/rebuilt calipers, rotors, brackets, lines, etc, that I can sell you...cheap. In the interest of full disclosure, the set I have are difficult to match with front discs, due to the 3"+ piston area on the rear brakes. Not likely to match up well with your Wilwoods, unless you're running some kind of dual master cylinder or something....
