Actually, he doesn't. D4 front discs are the same size as pre-2010 Brembo'd RRS. This would be a step backwards on a D4


What diameter are they then ? Confused

My D4 has

Disc diameter: Vehicles with 5.0L or 3.0L diesel engine 360 mm (14.2 in)


You cant get any bigger for either the 5ltr V8 petrol or the 3.0ltr diesel ....no?Confused 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

D3 TDV6 = 320mm
D3 V8 = 344mm

D4 = 360mm

As Mikey says, the standard D4 brakes are bigger than the D3 V8 set-up, so fitting them would be a step backwards for a D4. Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

Would you sell a pair of front carriers only?- if so how much? Bow down It can when others can't,

Ask Nick / TLO at Yeovil. They provide forum members a nice discount.
I went with EBC disks and pads and got the larger carriers from Yeovil. CLUB ILLEGAL CAR WASHERS
