Disk Brakes (Disco 1)

Do the front 4 piston calipers fit on the rear brakes? I am looking into replacing the 2 piston claipers with 4 piston exactly like the front ones from a salvage car.

No they don't fit on the rear. Are you looking for more stopping power, what pads and rotors are you currently using?

I just got my disco like a month ago. I currently have stock rotors and land rover pads.

If you want to go to stronger brakes you might consider switching to DBA slotted and drilled rotors and a set of kevlar pads, also replace your rubber brake lines with flexiable stainless steel.
