Do they all have drum brakes in the rear? Im looking for some discs for a rear salisbury but can only find drums.
Nas 110

The NAS trucks all had drums (these were all made in 92). The later trucks starting in late 93 had disc brake Salisburys. You can retrofit discs on. Keith @ Rovertracks can set you up. Basically you need a set of range rover pre-abs rear stub axles (the spindle part) and some range rover classic rear calipers and discs. I think disco 1 parts are also ok. Some very slight machining has to be done to the caliper mounting brackets. There are write-up's on how to do this on the web/google and the d90source.com.
Thanks guys,
The 110 I'm helping work on already has the disc brakes in the rear. I am searching for a replacement. I'll just have to pull them of and measure. They may be the same as the fronts.

My truck has a disc brake Salisbury. I know you are working on a NAS truck but these axles are cheap and easy to import so it may have been switched like mine.The axle has a number on it. Axles from KA930455 were factory disc brake axles and you should be able to just buy the parts from any supplier. If its one of those:
The Lockhead rotors are about $24 ea

or they have slotted and cross drilled for about the same price each
and pads also about $24

Another way to tell (easy and fast)-if you cannot find a number on the axle housing ,is to pull an axle shaft out. The KA930455 part number break was also when they switched the salisbury to dry (grease) outer hubs instead of having the diff oil work its way out to the wheel bearings and keep them lubed that way. If you pull the axle shaft there will be a machined surface about 10 inches from the flange end. If the axle you are working on has that machined spot for that seal its one of the factory disc brake axles. If not, measure away and best of luck. While you are @ it check the axle spline to cast iron hub fit. This is where Salisburys wear and replacing the hubs usually takes all the slop out of the axle.

Doug,
Thanks for all the info! Actually I'm not working on a NAS.
Paddock Spares wont reply to my emails. I have mailed them with no response.
Looks like I'll go back to Dingocroft.

Yeah- Paddocks sucks on email. I find I have to call. When they have something they are cheapest, and I get things I order faster than UPS ground from RN.

Your right they are the cheapest. I can get free shipping thanks to the Military postal system and a couple of members on here
I might try to call them; although in the past I have had very good service with Dingocroft.
