what about the likes of paddock and rimmer???

Well, with so many choices of places to buy parts, it's unlikely I'll be darkening their doors lol

Have CWS just up the road, the break all LR's and can supply new bits aswell. They quoted me on full brake pipe set front and rear £95 - Then spoke to Yeovil Landrover who said they can't supply the front pipes as over yrs old and obsolete lol

Cheers Neilly

new on here, thought "feedback and suggestions" would be appropriate, but will re-post there and see lol

Need some parts for my L322 -- bushes, brake pipes, ball joints and brake hoses - suggestions welcome of best place to shop ???

oh, and speaking to a breakers, said it would be cheaper to buy new than ask them to strip out the old to use as a template - so far quoting about £40 - £50 for new pipes to use as a template (sale or return so I buy them, then give them back lol)

Well, had some interesting chats today with "Landrover" garages. One said about 5hrs work to strip and replace the front - £290 + vat. Another said about 8hrs work @ £50 p/h and couldn't quote as didn't know how much pipe would be needed, and the 3rd, never done an L322, but would make the...

where did the "ready made" kit come from?? found a company in Buckingham that make for most

Think I need to get a best mate in the trade lol

Interested to know how many hours labour are in the £500 ?? just gives me an idea of the time it will take

and advisories - brake pipe corroded, covered in grease ...... nearside + offside rear brake hose slightly deteriorated nearside + offside front

haha, mine is a L322

"Brake pipe excessively corroded Nearside + Offside Front [1.1.11(c)]

Ideally, in time, to replace every single pipe would be the end result

am I right in thinking the parts that the MOT failed on would be part 12 + 13 on this diagram or am I barking at the wrong treee?? https://www.landroverworkshop.com/diagrams/braking-systems/hoses-pipes/front-brakes_52918

thanks for that. Forgive my ignorance but have you replaced the pipes from the caliper all the way back to the brake cyclinder?? Have no idea on mechanics, can make a car look all shiny but want to get my hands on with this and learn as I go

thanks for the reply. was that the first time you'd done anything like that or are you quite competant in the mechanic area? Bit daunting for me as it's suck a crucial part of the car. How long did it take you to do?

also found a company in Buckingham that create full sets for a multitude of Landys, so have emailed to see what they have to say as the L322 is not listed. Other Landys are, and the full set is about £140. I don't know if this is good or bad pricewise, but if it means the pipes are good for...
