Brake pads

Hi Guys!

I'm new on this forum, and new to Disco ownership! - I've always had Defenders in the past

I've been hiding away reading the posts - it's a great source of help and information well done all Thumbs Up

So here goes with my first question then Rolling Eyes

On the subject of Brake pads - what does everybody reckon is the best option - Ferodo or Mintex - or something else? The Main Stealer wants crazy money for a fifteen minute job that I could do if only I knew which compound to slot in there?

...and as to fitting it must pretty straight forward right - especially if they don't wind out

wiggs can I pm you for this as well?

thank you in advance

No problem .. But I won't be able to send you the docs till tonight ..

You can get front and rear pads from Yeovil LR for around £100 ..very easy to fit

Search for " the large one " on here .. He's the parts manager and offers a bit of discount G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

Blimey! Shocked

That was quick!

Thank you both - brilliant! I've printed the PDF - thank you - that's excellent! So wiggs I don't need to trouble you further

Of course...realised that this was probably posted on the wrong thread! I since found the Sticky one on Tips and Tricks http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic1511.html

Idea maybe I should post my original question re the compound there as well ?

all the best

Most will say just go genuine pads. If you call The Large One (Nick Lee) at Yeovil Landrover, tell him Disco3 sent you and he'll give you a nice discount, even with postage works out cheaper than local Thumbs Up

Some have used the other brands (I think Ferrodo do the LR ones) but in Wty & the fact that this is a heavy old beast, no point in risking anything else other than Gen.

Thanks Bodsy! Job done

Just finished speaking to Nick at Yeovil - he sat up when I mentioned the Forum - so that works!

The pads were more expensive (even with 25% discount for being on here) than Ferodo's off Fleebay BUT not by anything more than £20 all in - they are the branded thing after all !!

...will try and remember to take some photos as I do it
