--- Quote from: "smith335" ---Some thing i have just noticed,in the rimmer bros catalogue it states that discos up to 93 have solid front discs,and should use split pin type retaining pins on the pads.

and from 94 onwards discos where fitted with vented discs and should use solid pin type retaining pins for the pads.

now my disco is a 94 and has solid front discs,but has solid retaining pins.

so has some one fitted the wrong discs , or fitted the wrong retaining pins?
does it matter,make any difference to the brakes?


sorry to go on ,but i like things to be right when it comes to brakes!

Yip! Mine is exactly the same  :cry:

Darren:
Rimmer Bros are wrong. Solid front disks were used for all 300tdi's. I'm not sure about later V8's though.
