Its time for brakes that stop not squeal and suspension that damps rather than bounces.
I have a 1972 classic and the front brake calipers have seized and warn the discs, the rears are getting low.
I plan to replace the front calipers and dics/pads all round. I'm assuming Britpart bits.
A couple of questions though -
1 - Can I and is there any point in increasing the disc size while I do this work.
2 - Due to the amount of dismantling involved, what else should I replace whilst things are apart.
3 - What suspension setup would you suggest? Mainly road or unmade roads, towing. Will need to be snow capable and not embarrass me at the odd pay an play. I have air bags inside the springs on the rear for towing and anti roll bars are still connected.
Sensible advice much appreciated.
And of course if you happen to have some of this in your garage ...
