MG MGB GT V8 Factory Originals Technical - Rear Brakes

Who can give information/contact for convert rear axle to brake disc?
Thanks
Juergen

Juergen, Try the archives section under MGB Technical. There are some posts there on disc brakes.
Also a company in England (Walden Engineering) makes an independent rear suspension kit for MGB's and may be worth a try also Moss UK. They would probably know of someone making kits. HTH, Pete, Sydney, Australia.

There is a book, think its How to improve the MGB and V8......., look at the MG Owners club site, under accessories, Generaly its not a good book, but for adding rear suspension mods such as the brakes it is very clear and offers options and contacts as well as clear photos.
Tatty

Jeurgen, There is another book also by Roger Williams, author of the book mentioned by Tatty, above which is:
"How to improve the MGB, MGC and MGB V8.
ISBN: 1-901295-76-1 Veloce Publishing PLC.
Good luck, Pete, Sydney, Australia.

Juergen,

John Bourke has done this and details should be in V8 info somewhere on this site. There used to be a conversion kit for rear- Cox and Perry have used one in past but difficult to get hold of. Terry Brown is in process of manufacturing kit for SD1 axle which may be adaptable for B axle.
