United Kingdom 2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Galway Green
Help with brake upgrade please
We have a 2011 110 xs utility slightly lowered on Fox shocks/springs, uprated roll bars, 18" wheels, remap, exhaust, full SD exterior cage and a grand tour roof tent. We also tow an off road 3 Dog trailer tent.

When loaded up and sometimes whilst a bit of spirited driving the brakes give some concerns, we are looking for a solution to the best way forward.

Cheers 61 plate-110 USW......a bit pimped
54 plate NAS Spec 90-sold
4-Defenders-sold

Braided hoses defo,drilled or grooved discs or high friction pads compromise longevity ( pita changing the discs onna defender,even worse wi ABS),if that bothers you.

several site sponsors do upgrades, or if you want to keep standard calipers (and the price down), how about EBC upgraded discs and pads DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

I've found just EBC pads made a big difference no doubt a disc upgrade too will also. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧
