- Carrying on with our Defender 110 front axle rebuild we fit the brake discs showing a neat trick to help crack off the retainer bolts, In this video you will see how to check run out on the disc before putting the rest of the brake together.

I dont understand why this channel is not more popular, its really well done and my got to site for fixing my 90.
It is ticking over quite well, to be honest. Something like 200 000 views per month. It's only a small niche so I don't expect too much. Thanks for the compliment. Enjoy the vids.
Great video! Putting the hub assembly in the tire is definitely one of those "why didnt i think of that?" moments!
I must say, your videos are excellent. They are always detailed and helpful and I really must commend you. Thank you for all the work you put in.
Thanks. Nice to know it is appreciated. Pity is there is always more stuff to add so it is a compromise to give the details that are important first. You'll find other details get sneaked in in other videos.
Thanking you sir for your videos, building up an old Discovery series 1 (3 door V8) for some serious offroading and your videos and giving me plenty of confidence with the future restoration. So cheers from down under mate!
short and to the point. all info needed to do the job right. Thank you.
great videos and a big help to someone new to land rovers
thank you
Wow - excellent presentation and VERY informative. Top marks to you. Thanks very much!
Inspiring videos as always with sharp picture and great commentary. Doing these jobs in your driveway is great, this is what most of us have to do in our driveways between showers so its nice to see a professional work like this too. Would you do a video on replacing brake pipes, what to use, what pipes, sizes, fittings, tools and tricks of the profession? That would help get a lot of us through the dreaded MOT and be safer on the road too?
flaskandsarnies thanks for the feedback. Yes you are right, dodging raindrops to get the work done is our way. . Okay the brake pipe making is on the cards. I'll see if I can push it up the schedule and get it out quicker for you! Keep an eye out on the channel.
Always a pleasure to watch... no excuse for budding land rover enthusiasts... get your plastic ratchets out and remember, it's not a hammer... ;o)
Probably should say, if you've not bashed in a bearing race before then mind your wheel rims, expensive driveway cobbles or wife's polished kitchen table ... If you're in a bind then take an angle grinder to your old race and use these to drift your new one in ...
Looking forward to the next instalment ... you should probably know ... you've got me working on the old land rover in the freezing bloody cold ... I mostly hate you for this...
Another top video; thank you. Have you ever thought of approaching one of the satellite channels to do a landy/off road/big boys toys type build programme? You have a good style and pace with your voice and we'd even forgive you looking like Shrek if the camera is on the project 60% of the time!
He he ....they want excitement and personality.......... not my field. We're technical here.
+Land Rover Toolbox Videos You know you say that but look at Ed China...
I have relatives that work in TV and trust me they can make anyone seem interesting!
Anyway if you defected it would mean we'd lose all your skills that help us bodge artists so maybe it's for the best :)
ha ha Yeah there are some charters on TV. I'd like to get all the guys i work with and make a TV show out of them. Modern day circus show.
thank you
Great video.. I owned Disco 2. I would like to ask. When i drive on the highway, speed around 100km/h or less and i apply breaking, my steering wheel start to shake/vibrating. Maybe you can provide me some information about this issue. thank you.
What size socket is the calibre fix with looks like a star shape socket.
Always love your vids. But would you mind explaining _why_ things you mention is important, like why the end float is so important on the drive shaft, or why not to use lith-moly on wheel bearings?
Ah yes, good point. Trying not to repeat myself in some cases, sometimes there is not enough time to cover absolutely everything but you are getting very detailed information. If what you are looking for is not in this video then there is a detailed swivel pin housing overhaul video set with hours of info on whys and wherefores on our channel page. Good point about the grease though. I'll have to do something specific about lubrication in the future. Detailed subject indeed. Thank you for commenting.
I have an older 1995 defender NAS 90 and I want to upgrade to vented discs with the newer wider calipers, is it a direct replacement no mods?
thank you. is there a big difference in brake and performance
vented disc are designed to dissipate heat so you don't get brake fade on long braking sessions. They have the same surface are for pad to disc so nothing improved there, Only if you fit callipers with larger pistons you'll notice - BUT too much braking can be worse than poor performance as the could lock up and give you skid.

What is the correct size of the 12 point bolts that hold the calipers
Amazing vid, as usual. One question...on my 98 90, if I break strongly, I hear some digital BEEP inside the car. I looked the manual but found nothing. What could it be? Breaking "normally" is ok, and the breaks seem to be fine. Thank you
Never heard of that one. especially of a vehicle of that age. Has someone fitted something in the vehicle that would do that?
I doubt it, it should be original, as far as I know. It is really curious, people get scared "What is that noise?" all the time :) . Have to admit I was scared the first times I heard it too. Thanks for the reply.
Do you have friends that like to play practical jokes?
:) Wish I could record the sound so you could hear it. The mechanic said the break fluid could be low, but it wasn't. Still a mystery where the sound comes from...no lights on the panel, no nothing...But he said the time to change the break pads is coming soon. Could it be that? Some sort of sensor? I saw some break pads that have sensors, but I don't think my old car would have one. Regards
Mistery solved. I talked to the previous owner, and he had installed some sort of sensor to detect if water is missing on the reservoir. So when I break hard, water is moved out from the sensor and it beeps. Glad is just that.
hello . my defender 110 font caliper seals are leaking . how can cost an new brake caliper or can i rebuild it . please answer
We have a series on overhauling callipers. Here is a playlist for you to browse th-cam.com/play/PLLBZWyYKFvYLcgZbmsPWb59LmMGljp2K8.html
If you are going to cost out replacing a calliper I'd advise you change or overhaul both front callipers at the same times as to maintain braking balance.
on my Discovery 1 1998 the front desk is not vented if I use vented disc do I have to upgrade the caliper in the world a caliper go on the same bracket
The solid disc type calliper will not take a vented disc. The vented disc is much wider. You'll need to upgrade the callipers too if you want to go down that road.
Who makes the breaker bar?
