On a related topic, this kit comes with plastic brake components from
Bowser,
and they look pretty good to me. Are these available separately


They most definitely are. They come from Bowser and are marketed in the Cal
Scale line. The part number is 190-283.

I, too, have trouble with the cast resin brake components, and this part has
become my standard.

Another option is Detail Associates 6227. This looks like the set that Ted
used in his RMC sidebar on AB brakes. It contains some different brake
wheels and housings, as well as some other parts that certain applications
need.
