Two comments on the diagram - you could potentially lose the flexies to the h/brake cylinder saving several leak / airlock points with junctions and joints - nothing is likely to move therefore hardlines are ok and 2nd - mount the rear axle line on the axle with a single flex line to the car. There is no need for flex lines to the drums or calipers as the movement is very limited although it does make caliper servicing easier!
