Austin Healey Sprite 1967 - 1971

Product no.: Austin Healey Sprite

The Austin Healey Sprite from 1967 to 1971, also known as the MkIV Sprite, featured an upgraded braking system compared to earlier models. The vehicle's brakes were typically supplied by Lockheed, and it featured a combination of disc brakes in the front and drum brakes at the rear.

Braking System:

Front: The vehicle was equipped with disc brakes on the front axle, which provided better braking performance and heat management compared to the earlier drum systems.

Rear: The rear axle featured drum brakes, which were less maintenance-intensive but not as powerful as disc brakes.

The brakes on the Austin Healey Sprite were fitted with Lockheed components, which were common in many British vehicles. Replacement parts like brake pads, caliper pistons, and wheel cylinders are available in various versions from specialist suppliers like www.klassik-bremsen.ch.

Clutch:

The Austin Healey Sprite MkIV from 1967 to 1971 used a single spring clutch with a 7.5-inch (190 mm) diameter.

The clutch was mechanically operated and required a slave cylinder and a master cylinder, both manufactured by Lockheed.

Replacement parts like clutch repair kits, clutch slave cylinders, and clutch pressure plates are available for the Sprite MkIV.
