Front Brake pads for 1966 Morgan + 4

Aren't those pads "common" to some Triumph or Healey?

The early calipers were Girling "16"'s - healey and cortina with the brake hose coming off the back of the caliper. The later models used a ford derivitive, with a slightly different pad. Brake hose exits the caliper from the top. I *think* they were used on cortinas, but I'm not sure which one.

'66 should use the later ford style (Lucas pad #105) but you never know on a 40 year old car with build inconsistencies at the factory.....

EBC# is DP2106 for "green stuff", but my experience is that they are better at marketing than they are at making brake pads. Just me.

The rears look triumph-ish, but aren't. I'm sure they fit some obscure something-or-other, as morgan borrowed parts from other cars.

Hope this helps. Glad to answer questions. I hope my offer to sell parts doesn't make me one of those mercenary types.

BTW, I sell caliper kits, hoses, and custom stainless pistons, too. 8)
 
Just asking for the sake of knowing, Eric. Cross-reference is a helpful bit of info for all.

As for the caliper kits 'n pistons, do you have the ability to match 'em to original Girling part numbers?
