Hello All I am posting this in the hope someone may be able to help.
There are a couple from the Netherlands that are travelling around aus in a landrover110 300 tdi 98 model LHD that they brought with them, however they are stuck in Bunbury W.A. as the front calipers developed a leak and nobody seems to be able to Identify the parts (seals ) needed. These are 4 piston/ slotted rotors. The vehicle has been modified before they left the Netherlands from a manual to an auto and we believe that the brakes were upgraded as well ( they bought the vehicle like this). I have included pics as to try and help identify what it is and what is required. We believe that this mod was a something that was done to the army defenders in Europe, but I cannot confirm this. I have looked on Rave and microcat but am unable to see anything that looks like this. The part required is app 13mm long with a rubber seal and a metal tube inside that acts like a spacer between the 2 halves of the caliper They have a website www.travelsick.nl (http://www.travelsick.nl) if anyone wishes to see the defender and all its mods.
JC and Blacknight have u seen anything like this?
They will eventually be heading to Melbourne for xmas if they can get the defender fixed and am hoping that the landrover comaderie and hospitality will continue where ever they go in aus. I have been helping them while they have been in Perth with locations and places to go see.
Dons ph Number is 0415293032 if you can help or email me via the forum
Many Thanks
