Getting ready to do the brake job I've been putting off. Along with replacing the calipers, soft lines, and hub bearings, I'm thinking about going with EBC brake rotors w/green stuff pads, but cannot find much on the forum about them. Has anyone installed/had good service from them?


My next question is since I'm going to have that much torn apart, would it be a good idea to keep going & replace the swivel pins & bearings as it doesn't seem to be that much more ripping & tearing once I have everything apart for the brakes? I'm still having some occasional wheel wobble at higher speeds coming off of bridges.

 

Go with the D90 rotors and calipers. I have had good success with the EBC green stuff pads. But definitely do the defender brake rotors and calipers. They have the slotted/vented sections in the middle making them wider than normal D1 thus making new calipers necessary.

 

Will look into the D90 calipers & rotors. Do you know if there's a difference in the soft brake lines between the Disco & D90 for the front calipers? I know the rears are the same. Doing to go with the stainless replacement lines.

 

Plug and play.

 

Just have to bend the hard line a little to make it fit the d90 caliper

 

Bending sounds scary without the proper tool. Can I avoid bending with a longer soft line?

 

Bending is easy, think bending a wire hanger without creasing it.

 

Super easy to bend it.
