Evening all, 1988 110 CSW fitted with 300Tdi from Disco, fitted with original LT77 gearbox with original 2.5TD bellhousing and a 1.211 (or was it 1.221??) Disco transfer box....

I have a curious problem.....on the first and second push of the brake pedal of the day, i.e. left overnight, even with a normal application of the brake pedal, the rears will lock up quite happily with the usual swing of the rear pendulum effect.

After a few pedal applications, she'll be fine for the rest of the day, but if left for a few hours, the first few applications cause the rears to bite quite sharply....

I know the 90's have a compensator valve, but I am not sure what could be causing it on the 110.

Any ideas where I can start locking, keen to resolve before the real cold sets in over the next coupe of months!

Brake fluid leaking and sticking the shoes to the drum.

Also possible fronts starting to sieze, but more likely what he said.

Discs or drums? Don't 110's have a compensator valve? How do they distribute braking power to the front?
