Brake Backing Plates

Rusted-through or deformed splash plates behind the brake disc are a recurring wear point on the 740, 760 and 780 – the plate is easily damaged by gravel, salt and moisture and can start to rub against the disc with a scraping sound. This category gathers brake shields and the associated anchorage screws for the front and rear brakes.

Since the entire series has disc brakes all around, there is a brake shield at each wheel. When replacing them, cleaning rust off the hub is a good check point, and new screws make installation secure. Note that the front of the 700 series was changed in 1988 from an integrated hub/disc design to a separate two-piece design – check which version your car has before ordering.
