drum:
Does anybody ever replace the solid pipe along the rear axle with a flexible one?? Seems such a pain having to disconnect it, just to do the pads etc?

Range Rover Blues:
If you can unclip the rear brake pipe it wil spring far enough to remove the hub/disk and leave the calliper connected, hanging from a string.

I use EBC greenstuff (£100 from Paddocks I think) all round and standard disks, though I prefer the Delphi ones to the honk-kong-fuey, the unbranded ones go 'patchy' once you've broken the surface and give you a judder I find.

The brakes were great 'till I went onto 235/85 tyres, now I'm struggling too.

drum:
Apparently EBC don't do them for a 54Plate 110 Defender with ABS yet  :( So I've had to use stock after all.

Henry Webster:
That's a pity - for neither axle?

drum:
Front's was a maybe, but rears are a definite no. We think they should fit the front, but EBC tells us they won't. With abit of luck they should have them when I've knackered these in 12 months  :D
