Brakes!!!
I found a bunch of em on Amazon.......http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&rh=n...bleeder&page=1
I've never had a problem bleeding my brakes? I still have the ABS active and I've read posts of individuals having problems bleeding their active systems. I don't know, one of these days I'm going to crack open the ABS block and find out what's the deal which has been done with the newer Wabco systems on H2's and DII's. There's a project for SB since he has such an abundance at the bone yard to pick from...hint hint.
Has anyone upgraded the master cylinder or master and booster? I mean these brake systems work but they always feel mushy to a point whereas modern four wheel disc systems are always firm with better road feel. I get chided for late braking by some passengers in my truck and I just say I don't have long enough legs to reach the pavement. Toyota trucks/SUV's are dead on with feel and performance and they're not lightweight vehicles like they used to be. They smoke our smaller Disco's in weight and performance. British vehicles have never been known for great brakes but these are atypical even for them.

I have never had a problem bleeding brakes before either, I dont know if it was because I let the system go completely empty or what.
All is well now so I am happy with the results.

I also need new front brakes. What do you know about the EBC performance brakes on AB? There are so many variations..any suggestions on what parts to get? I don't want to break the bank, but I want something that will last and hold up well.
Just buy what you can afford, total cost for the kit I bought was $250 shipped, 4 slotted rotors and ceramic pads.
They were actually cheaper than solid rotors and semi metallic pads.
I bought solely on price.
I am still very pleased with my new brakes.
It still stops like a DI.
