Are the brakes on UC (build 3/79) the same as LH/X?
I have a LH workshop manual at home, but not one for UC.
My UC has the PBR calipers, as do the LH, so I'm assuming they are the same as LH (the Girlock were fitted after 3/79?)

Can dattoman confirm perhaps?

Wish to change pads on UC this arvo.....

Knoath, If you have PBR than they are the alloy type ie Late LX/UC early. The LH and early LX were PBR Cast Iron. The Girlock alloy was mid to late 79 or there abouts.

Thanks for that Toranavista, I take it that the removal and fitment are the same though?

Cheers
