Its on a jaguar, but I'm sure its not a jaguar brake.

Its on racing pads at the moment and I have been asked to put it onto road pads, because it wont stop when they are cold.

Any markings on old pads that might give it away?

Looks like a Girling 3 pot caliper as fitted to the Jaguar E-Type Series 2 / 3 , 420 and XJ6/12 of the late 1960s early 1970s . You might be better posting in the classic / nostalgia section where there are a number of Jaguar experts .

Try John at Performance Braking - 01600 713117. He worked as the development engineer at Lucas Girling and now has his own business supplying brake parts for historic motorsport.
