Product Details

Finding well-matched brake components for a classic Morgan Plus 8 is not always straightforward, but EBC's S5KF1538 kit takes the guesswork out of the equation. This front brake kit pairs Yellowstuff high-friction pads with GD series wide-aperture drilled and slotted rotors, sized specifically for the 1974-1978 Morgan Plus 8.

Yellowstuff is EBC's highest-friction street pad, carrying the GG friction rating. For a classic car that may sit between drives and then get pushed hard on a weekend run, the strong initial bite is a real plus. The pads are shimmed, chamfered, and finished with EBC's Brake-in coating to help them seat quickly. The GD rotors are 276mm solid discs with a 5-bolt pattern, 26mm height, 13mm thickness, and an 87.3mm center hole diameter. The drilled holes and wide slots help clear dust and gas while improving heat management.

Both components carry Geomet anti-rust coating on the rotors, which is especially useful on a car that might not see daily use. This is a direct-fit front-axle kit backed by EBC's 10,000-mile warranty for street use.
