which brake disc pads?
front brake disks need changing soon. Are the cheaper britpart disks and pads just as good as genuine landrover ones, -- whats the best cheaper ones to use...?

if we are talking fronts, the genuine pads are only about 45quid, so not worth buying cheaper ones. Some folks have used britpart discs and been ok, I tried a set and couldnt get rid of brake shimmer, so went back to genuine.
Speak to TLO (member - thelargeone) for discount LR parts.

The manufacture matters less than the pad compound IMO
