My "project" Land Rover Discovery 300Tdi

Peter

Fit calipers SEB500460 and SEB500470

They are defender 110 vented caliper, single hose fitment

Much easier than converting RTC6776 and RTC6777 to fit your car

DOH

I should have looked at your pictures

Yeah Sam, I understood it a little late.

Sam, this shield - Brake disc shield, interfere with you
installation of new brake calipers, you remove it?

Yes Peter I recommend remove all brake disc shields, the prevent good washing of mud from brake discs

.... oleleee, how fast you writing!

hi peter

luckily i was online at the time so i saw your post and replied quickly

regards crownwheel and pinion set, what final/overall gear ratio do you want? for example do you want to retain factory land rover final drive ratio or do you want to fit lower ratio than factory standard?

what transfer box ratio do you have fiteed currently, 1.2 discovery or 1.4 defender?

what tyre size do you have? are you planning bigger tyres in future?

can i recommend:

Land Rover Gearing Calculator - Free to LR4x4.com - International Forum - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum

scroll down a bit to bottom of forst post and download the program .xls

very clever gear calculator provided by nige from megasquirt, he also sells differential components

Today, we took a shower and went to the service.
