Short Description
Installing the Torrel disc brake system in a Series Land Rover is a straight forward process. The existing front drum brakes are removed and the disc brakes are installed using the stub axle bolts that hold the original drum brake backing plate in place. No other modifications to the vehicle are required. The disc brake conversion can be fitted to any Series II, IIA or III Land Rover equipped with 16 inch rims (wheels). The disc brakes work well with the early Series Land Rover single line brake master cylinder (without vacuum assist) although the brake pedal pressure required to stop may be slightly greater than that required with the original drum brake system. The Torrel system also works well with the dual master cylinder, vacuum assist systems supplied on Series Land Rovers from 1970 onwards. The dual line system is a significant improvement to the single line system.
