Can anyone recommend a decent GT750 brake pad?

Post by n8balls »

I seem to be having a bad run with brake pads for my 76 GT750...

Got some 'pyramid parts' pads and they didn't fit - had to file all the glue off and was left with a furry metal mess.

Tried another pair from ebay and the threaded hole on the inner pad was in the wrong place - too close to the edge so I can't put the locating bolt in.

I got some 'Forma' pads also form ebay and they fit great but they are rock hard and I don't think they stop too well...

what are you guys using and where do you get em?

cheers,
N8

Try EBC or Vesrah. Both are available from DennisKirk.com. Go there and search by part number.
The EBC part number is 19-5131.
I was born with nothing and still have most of it left.
