[Healeys] 3000 Disc Brake Assembly

[David Nock BCS]

Check the fit of the backing plates first. The ones that are currently being supplied do not fit. You may need to move one of the brackets that support the dust shield.
So install the spindle and caliper less the two front bolts, fit up the backing plate and attach to the caliper and make sure the the clearance around the shield is equal and the front brackets line up to the mounting holes on the spindle.

How timely is that!  I have not installed the hub assembly yet. (just put the outer ball bearing races in the hub last night).  I also just received a pair of dust shields and rubber seals from AH Spares a day or two ago.  They came already painted too!  I just thought it would be better as originally designed.  Still not quite sure of how all the fasteners go to put all this together, but I am sure it will become clear when I assemble it.  Thanks for that Service Bulletin!   My thinking has been re-affirmed.

‘The caliper has a metal brake line about six inches long that connects to the rubber brake hose’ which join at a bracket mounted to a suspension part IIRC.

Mike,



The caliper has a metal brake line about six inches long that connects to the rubber brake hose.

  Never having assembled disc brakes for a Healey 3000, let alone any big Healey, I would like to ask a question or two.  Does the flexible brake line connect directly to the caliper?  I see a short brake pipe with fittings in the illustrations in catalogs.  Does this short brake line go between the flex line and the caliper?  I might ask more questions at a later date.
