Thread: Part numbers for Brake pads, rotors, brake calipers for 1984 110?

I need to replace the pads (at least) for the disc brakes on the front of my 1984 V8 110. I've owned the vehicle for a long time and I believe that the brakes are original - that is no updates to later 'Defender' brakes have occured.

There appear to have been several epochs of front disc brakes over the 30 years or so of coil sprung 110s. To the extent I understand matters it looks as though the disc brake system was common on 110s from 1983 to 1985 (or maybe 1986). To avoid buying the wrong parts, it would help if there is anyone out there in AULRO-land who can advise what the part numbers are for pads (at least) and, ideally, calipers, pistons, piston kits and discs for vehicles of that era. About 20 years ago I had a brake shop refurbish the front brakes and I recall them commenting, even then, that getting parts was a challenge.

A bit of an ask I know, but worth a question.

On a related question I have a pair of refurbishable calipers from my 1999 110 CSW (which obviously require vented discs). Is it simply a bolt on option (ie just calipers and vented discs) to replace my existing 1984 front brake system with the 1998 system? My biggest concern is whether there are changes in the geometry of the 2 bolts (I think its 2) which bolt the caliper to the hub?

There have been several threads on related matters, but I've been unable to find a thread with the specific question, so any advice would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Do what I do, ring MR automotive and have them send the right bits.

Im pretty sure its the same pad set for a county as it is for a perentie. And as far as I know in the shed class rovers with discs (And I've never checked because both my goto parts suppliers have a cool habit of just getting it right so I dont have to worry) run the same pads with the difference in the calipers being a spacer, longer bolts and extra seals to accomodate the vented disc's extra thickness.
