Range Update
In the range update of this month you will find a brake caliper (423461 / 423462) for the Iconic Land Rover Defender. This particular part can be fitted to the 90, 110 and 130 models. The original Defender was created in 1983 and is a redesign of the original Land Rover. One of the noticeable changes in this redesign of its predecessor the Series III is the addition of coil springs instead of leaf springs. Coil springs offered both better ride quality and improved axle articulation.
Adding a lockable centre differential to the transfer case gave the Defender permanent (on-road) four-wheel-drive capability. Both changes were derived from the Range Rover, and the interiors were also modernised. Some models of this generation of the Land Rover Defender remained in production until 2020 when it was replaced with an all new design.
