40 Lincoln Rear Brake Backing Plates

[Ole Lou]

Using 40 Lincoln brakes on the rear of my project. They do not have the emergency brake cable tubing on the backing plate. Someone had removed them before I got them.
Will the backing plate emergency brake cable tube off a 40 Ford work on these backing plates? Or are they special to the Lincoln brakes since they are self energizing type?

If the 40 Ford tubes can be used, any suggestions on best way to remove them from the donor backing plates?

Appreciate any insight into this problem
