If it's the back brakes/handbrake mech, there was a guy in Norton (round the back of the garage with all the flash cars) who specialised in classic Jags.

He sorted mine for me just after I bought my first Tiv (280).

Old school type, who knew his stuff. Probably knows the diffs too.

Corner of Norton Ave/Norton Rd. (just looked at the map)

Glad you got it home and hope it doesn't cost too much to sort out.

When I had my rear brakes done Mike at Horizon Motorsport got all new calipers and pistons for not a lot. Recall they may come off an Austin Princess

I'd give him a call and see what he can do

Rear brakes are Jag, Front 4 pots (400SE etc) are Austin Princess.

Cheers lads i'v give it to a place called cartech to sort out, He had a ferrari 355 and 2 porche turbo "s" out the front so if people trust him with them cars he must know what hes doing. Fingers crossed its not too much though
