I agree.  I don't use anything exotic, just use Staylube GL4.  It's 
available locally and avoids the "yellow metal scare" associated with GL5.

I believe Quantum usually replaces the brake linings.  I don't normally 
find that necessary and have not seen a spec for when it should be 
done.  I am aware of a couple of quantum rebuilds that did not want to 
release from overdrive unless you smacked the housing with a hammer.  
Redline oil seems to help until they get broken in. Ed Barnard is the 
guy with the experience on this.  Maybe he will weigh in.
