Question on Borg & Beck pads
Hi all
Sorry for the stupid question, but my Borg & Beck pads came with a blue backing plate, see pic (I took the plate off on the left one)
Do these need to stay on?
I am asking as my previous pad did not have that backing plate. No mention I can see of these in Bodsy's brake bible

I took them off when I did mine, my Indie did say they can be left on . Just remember:-
