Installing disc brakes on the Hillman Imp

That is the fronts only, the 8" drum brakes on the rear are plenty large enough,larger than some modern cars have these days?


 I chose to remove the front hub and do the assembly on the bench, the use of my large vice was very helpfull. You can do the job with the hub still on the car if needed?


The stub axle is secure in the Record (england) vice,leaving me with both hands to work on the fitting.



This looks like it was made for the car, in some ways it was.



This was a first for me, I doubt it will be my last, the kit quality is just superb!


Fitting this imported disk brake kit was a pleasure, another set arrived later for another car, the owner  installed those himself and is delighted with the results.



They look like they belong?
