- 60k on a set of front pads? I either commend you for your excellent anticipatory driving or condemn you for holding everyone else up by creeping about at 15mph. I consider myself a 'light' brake user

- Hello Mr. Johnson: About 70,000 mostly blue highway miles on the current rear shoes on the '67 MGB-GT and still adequate lining (just checked them the other day). Like you, I have wondered about mine

- I really wouldn't worry about it guys. I know that on mountain bikes, the front brakes do about 75% of the braking work. Provided your parking brake works within it's limits I wouldn't give it anothe

- Hi everyone, I used to lurk about this mailing last last year and quit because I did not have an MG. I have since rectified that situation and now have a 1980 MGB. The car had sat under a tree for qu

- A good shop manual will have a pic the assembled rear brake pieces. That's one way to check that you've put it all back together correctly. Maybe a better way is to only do one side at a time so you
