    It's a bit late to tell you now , but you should replace them both at the one time , because whatever one you change the other will give up not long after , good luck . Jim .

    Where can I find the specs for pedal height? I have looked through the owners manual but can't find it. Other forums have said 140mm. Is it the same for all defenders?

    I have a 96 110.

    Thanks for all the help guys.

    It's 140 mm from memory from the bottom of the pedal to the floor with no mat in. Hope this helps

    pooch measuring it from the floor

    hold the pedal up with a bit of rope to the seat.

    get in on top of the pedal tower and adjust the nuts,

    when you can get a 1mm feeler gauge in and out between the washer on the nut thats closest to the MC in the pedal pivot nip up the top nut without turning the shaft or the bottom nut.

    freeplay set.

    I found using dot3 instead of dot4 fluid helped with prolonging the life of my master cylinder as well as annually changing fluid. My new spare ( I have a habit of keeping one in the shed from previous experiance) cylinder actually has this written on outside of packaging - I believe toyota had an issue with this and wouldn't cover master cylinders under warranty if using dot4
