The CWI setup is only $695, I can't imagine what George gets, his stuff is VERY pricey! How are you, Jeff?

Tom Well
I can change out my pads in 30 minutes as well even with inboard brakes on my CCX. Seems like the XJS might be a nightmare since it is so packed in?

On the serious side, can't you get a good 20,000 miles off of your rear pads? Or maybe half that under track conditions? Rear pad replacement is a once or twice occurrence in the ownership of the car. |

That's what I thought! In fact I have had my car 20 years and 55000 miles and changed pads twice....and the discs once The sideshaft comes off ,,4 nuts a long extension ,an air gun and 1,,2,,3,,. The caliper does take a little effort (this is to change the discs) but..I also used to service Jags and the book does tell you to drop the rear suspension ,but I have done many jags pads including the handbroke pads without removing the whole rear end, its not the simplest job but.......on a Cobra there is a lot more space.
I think the unsprung weight advantage outweighs the servicability of inboard versus outboard brakes. thats a lot of pounds hanging at the end of the axle...
