Thread: 1993 Discovery 1 Pre update Dual Brake lines

I would just bolt the twin hose calipers on to the later houseing far less work

that was the original plan, however i believe that the later models went to Ventilated discs which are thicker so the earlier calipers wont fit

Nope there still solid defender has the vented big boy rotors

HMMMM.... now you have me thinking ill have to go have a look and compare them, i didn't bother at first i just searched on here, if that is the case then no worries at all, bolt on bolt off

I may be wrong looked in the catalogue and it lists two front rotors for disco1 and ones vented but in saying that our catalogue is full of holes guess wait till the rock up and take some measurements but either way your rotors and discs should swap over.

There are spacer kits available to widen standard calipers to fit vented discs. I got a set years ago from TRS in Adelaide.

Could as 460 said the discs be swapped save splitting the calipers or are they totally different

ok i have been doing a bit of searching both here and on google and cant find any definitive results, can i just bolt Solid discs onto the later model axle to allow me to change the calipers or dual line, if not why not, i cant find and specs on bolt patterns or sizes
