Big brakes
Range Rover Blues:
Don't need the diffs as I've got lockers, that's why I'm sticking with 10 spline.
Think I may have to pass for now though as I don't have a bottomless pit of cash.
Unless there is something I have that you need, but I doubt that somehow :( .

Plese don't get confused by the wording here.
Dual circuit brakes are required by EEC law. They can use a single line or a double line pipe.
The Range Rover Classic and the Discovery both use two brake pipes to the front calliper. This is because one pair of calliper pistons sre for the front brakes only. The second set of pistons witrh the back callipers are the other part of the "dual" system.
The Defender on the other hand only had one brake pipe to the front calliper.
The front brakes are one system. The rear brakes the other half of the dual system.
By the way. Neither of those systems are fully fail safe.
Pad number.
The pads are by Apec PAD 591.
Sorry but you'll need to cross reference the number.
A final though.
The coefficient of friction has nothing to do with surface area. :twisted:
