did mine last week and can confirm that they are much better. But then again my old discs were knackered so that won't have helped
Has anyone got a link for the full kit? Also can it fit under standard 19" wheels?1972 Range Rover Classic 2 door V8

I went for 4 pots because i wanted to keep the 19" wheels plus i already had a set. The discs are standard size D4 discs so need no modification. The 4 pots are a direct replacement for the 2 pot D4 callipers but they need to be from a RRS and not a L322 RR as the mounting points are different
They will fit under most 19" wheels but not all types (apparently the early D4 XS style alloys catch the spokes without spacers). Mine cleared fine but i also have fitted 30mm spacers

Exactly what marci said. I didnt want to go the 6 pot conversion set up and to kerp the stock hse alloys. It looks more pleasing to the eye and easier to do pad changes. Been out today just to start bedding them in. So far so good

They look good, i was tempted to go for the coated discs as i hate it when a shiny car is let down by rusty discs. Ended up with minted discs but not coated so will probably be out with the paint brush soon .
I also did the rear brakes at the same time

Sorry, don't know the part numbers. Just know that L322 brembo 4 pots are no good for d3-4. The giveaway is the steel blocks bolted to the caliper. The sport callipers have 2 blocks mounted at 90degrees to the caliper and stand proud above the calliper
Whereas the L322 4 pots have horizontal blocks and i believe have offset mounting holes (i.e left and right callipers are different castings)Previous Discos
