Why do you want Discs?  The Drum brakes should be more than enough up to the job.

philbert:
2 reasons
the motor has a smattering of ACR parts and needs good stoppers!

i fancy the wider track for RTVs

muddy_90:
ive heard the back axle is the easiest to fit but the front is a right pain in the neck to do,
why not fit 11" brakes all round, they should improve the braking

philbert:
11" brakes would be easier !
but i have a pair of rebuit defender axles sitting here doing nothing and fancy having discs alround and stronger axles.
