On a F53 460 there is no such thing as do it once on a brake job. You'll find out they need constant maintenance.
More then likely you already have new calipers on the rig that old, and the slide pins need to be cleaned and lubed. I'm sure the thing about the hoses is very possible, I see it quoted on the forum all the time. I just never ran into anyone in life on the road that had that problem.
What you'll learn is if the calipers are good, then the pins are sticking. They need to be cleaned and lubed every other year or more.
The brake fluid is also an issue and should be changed every other year or more. It's just the nature of that beast.
