Several proven upgrades are available to improve the MGC's braking performance beyond the original specification.
Braking Performance Upgrades
Stainless braided brake hoses with PTFE linings replace the standard rubber flexible hoses, providing a noticeably firmer pedal feel and more consistent braking response, as the braided construction eliminates the expansion under pressure that occurs as rubber hoses age and manifests as a spongy pedal and increased stopping distances. Copper brake pipe kits replace corroded steel rigid lines with malleable, non-corroding copper for a professional installation that will last decades. Uprated brake discs, slotted or drilled, combined with EBC Kevlar pads, offer significantly improved stopping power, heat dissipation, and fade resistance for owners who drive their MGC with enthusiasm.
Servo Kits & Maintenance Products
Tailored brake servo kits provide the servo unit, mounting brackets, vacuum hose, brake line extension, and fittings for servo installation or replacement in a single package. Brake lubricant, an advanced non-metallic compound, is applied to pad contact points during installation to prevent squeal and ensure smooth pad movement. Specialist brake tools including hose clamps, Girling shoe horns for rear drum servicing, calliper piston retraction tools, pipe bending tools, and brake cleaner aerosol support professional-standard brake work.
