I did the same on my M35; ended up replacing all the brake lines in the front using the off the shelf lengths from NAPA. I found out the hard way that you need to file the end down 1/8" after using the tube cutter, because the tube becomes "work hardened" at the cut and will not flare correctly.

I had the same problem when going too quickly from reverse to first; the shift tower somehow jumped out of its proper location. I jacked the rear end up to take the pressure off of the transmission. The forks had positioned the gears in both reverse and 3rd (If I remember correctly). If I had...

I like adding a battery cutout switch!

I used two farm jacks on one side, cribbed it and then moved to the the other side to lift the bed off of my M105 trailers to work on them -This should work for the M101 as it is lighter2cents
