MGB Front brakes upgrade :)

Image
This Saturday was given rainy... But was not in the end, so I have been lucky. What was I planning to do outside? ... Rework the front brakes on the B! :) I received from the previous owner who bought the car in 1985 all bills and receipts for all works performed on the car (one of the main reasons I have bought this car). In the service history, the front brake pads were last changed in... 1993. I have no evidence that the discs have been changed, so I assumed they are from before 1985 (!). I was intending to change discs and pads for some time now, especially as I was feeling braking was less efficient lately. Not bad, but less efficient. Since 1993, the car has only done 14000 miles, so that should not be too bad. Here follows a small tutorial and comments about servicing the brakes. What I am going to do Change the front plain discs by uprated EBC grooved and drilled ones. Change the pads for EBC greenstuff ones. I have bought a kit "+25 Braking upgrade kit
