    The army did the conversion on 6x6 landies consists of a bracket that bolts onto the axle housing that holds the caliper,and a driffernt hub.

    I for one would be very interested in the part numbers if they are specific to the 4x4 Perentie.

    Done this conversion before, if you can wait I'll try and find the paperwork, its only a matter of fitting the disc's/calipers and re-torqing the bearing with if I remember about 10lb pre-loading on bearings, bleeding the mungrel things was the worst trying to remove air was alot of drama.

    Cheers

    silly question

    Do you really need Landrover specific brakes couldn't any aftermarket discs assembly be used providing they're big enough and fit?

    Don't know what you did the conversion on but its not that simple, theres a bracket that bolts to the housing and the hub is different,did plenty at the old 2 base workshop,did one on a mates hybrid last year same deal need another hub,cuz the old one don't fit any more .

    I've had the great pleasure to have done a fare few 20-30 when the kit comes in the box the hardest is bleeding the breaks if the b/fluid has run out and lock tighting the anlen key bolts in the spec without rounding off then had them come back again when they changed (L/R) the pre-loading on bearings.
