Thread: Fitting 110 brake calipers to dual circuit early Discos?

you retrofit the whole discovery braking system.

or you can blank off one of the sets of lines going to the front calipers (the ones that link to the rear brakes) but dont get caught doing that.

Was there a Defender with dual brake hoses?

Why don't you use the late RRc ventilated rotors and callipers. I seem to remember a post where Justin C (or someone else in the know) suggested that the pads were the same as the Defender.

I retrofitted the 1992 callipers and new rotors to my 1985 RRc with noticable improvement.

You can do it by fitting a T piece on the top of the swivel housing (bolt to one of the railko pin bolts) and run 2 lines in and 1 out. I have done it the other way, 1 in 2 out to fit a RR front caliper to a 110 front axle. Easier still, why not get a 2 pipe RR caliper.

it shows how i converted dual lines to single by fitting 98mod callipers to my 91 ute.
the new flex lines are female to female and the old flex are male to male.
also the master cylinders are differant, the dual system has more outlets than the single, maybe source one of these and run 2 more new lines.
