Should be fine. I have TRP Eurox cantis on a 1992-ish fork. I expect the brake pads are mounted a few mm further on their studs because I have fairly skinny wheels by today's standards but it all fits and works fine. I've also had DX V brakes on that fork.
Don't know, sorry.
Could be either of those, or maybe 1-1/4". 1-1/4" is fine but bear a few things in mind:
-you have very limited choice of stems and headsets
-you won't be able to go threadless like you're planning to without some careful headset planning
-if you just want to use an a-head style stem you'll only be able to use the Nitto mt Column which is $$$ and impossible to find anywhere
Pretty sure it is, yes.
The frame might be 130mm OLN spacing at the back. Newer stuff will be 135mm+ but 9-speed will be fine with any of those.
No, 26" 559 on mtb is 26" 559 on mtb and there are loads of widths to choose from.
