I thought you might just use standard Freelander fronts on the rear. I take it the pcd is the same for the Chrysler as the Freelander then?
 
They be ickle tiny fings

Part of my reasoning is you get a servo effect with shoes that you don't with discs, and there's a reduction valve so went big to try and keep standard master cylinder
And they look cool
 
I've made sleeves for the studs. I'm going to see if I can fit 300c studs. The rings are spigot rings same as the wheel ones. Just had to trim them a bit
 
It's an experiment at the mo. If it all works I'll look into improving it. Either modify the hubs or source different discs. There's a fair chance I'll need to change something pretty major to make it work properly.
 
Were they Mk1 or Mk2 discs? The newer 2002> I think are a fair bit bigger. Might be a lot easier to use them even if much smaller than the Chrysler ones.
 
Sleeves on the studs will be fine. You could drill the discs and hubs to take 5 D3 disc retaining screws but that's probably overkill. Nothing is going to move once the wheels are torqued up anyway.
 
Think they're 13mm bigger and vented. I think.
The ones in the pic are the early solid ones.
If the disc moves the wheel will fall off!

Been a bit slow recently. But I now have extended driveshafts. Plus I've made a prototype wide arch. Bit of fettling to do but so far I'm well chuffed with it. Basically it's a wider version of the original so not as in your face as the body kit. No advance photos of it I'm going to wait until it's completed.

been busy. Lots of grey plastic gone. New momo knob. Usb point. Black vents instead of green
Finally finished the brakes, hydraulics are done. Not driven it yet though
 
It's a concern :D
Roof and centre bonnet are going black. Centre front bumper black. Tailgate black. Bumper end caps body colour. May do A bar body colour too. Plastic skids silver, grills silver, bonnet badge silver. All bare plastic to be retextured.
Think I'm on the home run now lots to do but mostly small finishing bits.
