    G'Day Jamie,
    Do not mix your brake components. Best idea would be to obtain a 
pair of series II SWB brake backing plates drums and wheel cylinders and 
fit them onto the your axle. The diameter of Series II and IIA SWB wheel 
cylinders front and rear is the same as Series I.
    Note also that the Series II front axle has a 2" (51mm) wider track 
than the 86" semi floating rear axle. This combination, whilst it would 
probably work OK will look odd and may be illegal in many countries 
(certainly is here).
    Cheers

Is there any problem having different size axles: front 109, rear

If there is no problem, will the the 86 master cylinder be OK using 11"
