Re: Mark 2 brakes

Brian,

>1: Does anyone know of any brake calipers that will provide additional pad
>area, but will fit (or can be made to fit) on to Mk II front uprights?

Coopercraft, Zeus and Classic Spares Ltd all advertise these as bolt on
replacements in the UK press/Jaguar Enthusiast magazine.  cost is ~375ukp
per pair.  Coopercraft also advertised a lightweight version, no price, and
vented disk kit.

>2: I believe if you replace the uprights with 420 ones that one can fit the
>3 pot calipers from 420/Series II E type? Has anyone done this? Any advice
>eg can I retain the Mk II stub axle and brake disc?

See Ryan's reply.  Classic Spares Ltd also advertise uprated stub axles
"to combat pad knock-off".

I can post addresses if required.  I haven't used any of these calipers, but
have had otherwise good experience of Classic Spares.
