Land Rover Repair: 98 Disco - replace front brake rotors, gasket seal, model discovery


Question
Does anyone have some tips or instructions for changing out the front brake rotors on a 1998 model discovery

Answer
Hi Alan,

send me an email and I'll reply with the LR techsheets on this.  Removeal is not difficult but you should purchase a new lock washer and gasket seal from your local LR dealer.  Tell the parts specialist what you are doing and he'll know those parts you'll need.  The lock washer may be salvageable but the gasket is a must have.  They are only a few dollars (rare for a LR).

Another tip:  while you are removing the rotors, you may want to consider repacking the bearings.  By removing the rotor, you are only a few steps away from doing this too.
