upgrade rear drums to discs?

[nicnac]

Is there a simple way to upgrade the rear drums to discs? i have done it before with my 90 but that was pretty simple as i just changed thewhole axle for a range rover one. the freelander looks a bit more involved than that.

any one already done this?

I have heard that the rear discs etc from a Rover 600 are supposed to 'bolt straight on'

Which in LR terms probably means lots of swearing and emptying of bank accounts.

I wonder if you can get enough torque to pull a cash machine behind you??!!!!!

Like to know if anyone has done this as feel the FL suffers from a poor braking system.

Why do you feel its Poor.

there is loads you can do the the front brakes.

I find the problem is with the early front brakes that are not very good but simply fitting the later type (td4) is simple enought to fit.

doesnt the rover only have four studs.

before the later models came out the rover 800's were the common upgrade but one small problem was re-drilling the disc to take a five stud hub. but the calipers fit straight on
