Hi all
My car has failed the MOT as the Hand Brake is not holding sufficiently and the garage have said it needs new brake pads. Its not a Morgan garage- and so they are having difficulty identifying where these pads are from?
Thanks

Hi Taffy. Up to the series 3 if you have no adgustement or slack left the cams on the brake calipers will need to be adjusted, not sure if the ss has shoes inside. mine were like new but the bra.ke is really awfull. After re assembly it just passed the mot but is back to normal again annoying.

The Morgan part number is mbso6670 Brembo might have a cross reference.
