Suitable for MGA
Drum brake models can be easily converted to disc brakes with these conversion kits. The kits use specially machined aluminium adaptor plates that use existing mounting points on the stub axle to provide a caliper mounting position. Suitable for use with either bolt on or knock on wheels.
The kit includes: Caliper adaptor plates, brake calipers (pair, MG A), brake discs (pair, MG A), brake pads (car set), brake hoses (pair), hardware.
Fitting Notes:
If fitting to a car with bolt-on wheels you will need to obtain 2 front disc brake type hubs as fitted to the 1600/Mk2, these can be purchased separately, Part Nos: BTB149, or could be found second-hand; owners who have converted to knock-on wire wheels will have a spare pair. We recommend renewing hub bearings if using second-hand hubs.
If fitting to a wire wheel, drum brake car you will need to replace the front hubs with the later 4 stud type. These can be purchased separately, Part Nos: BTB142 & BTB143.
If fitting in conjunction with a wire wheel conversion you should order the later 1600 type conversion kit, Part No. GAC7026. This will contain the correct later type front hubs, Part Nos: BTB142 & BTB143. Please see our Centre Lock Conversion Kits.
