Welcome to 60Patrol! :text-welcomeconfetti: You've come to the right place for all of your Patrol related questions. :D

Doing disco brakes on a Patrol is always a custom job. Here are a few disc brake projects that have or are being done: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5351 , viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2350&p=49015&hilit ... kes#p49015 , viewtopic.php?f=21&t=5512&p=43476&hilit ... kes#p43476 .

If you would prefer to keep your Patrol stock the drum brakes are completely adequate when set up and working correctly. You can search the forum here for everything that is needed. Many of the parts come from Australia on eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/331677862533?s ... 1438.l2649 .

Either way you decide to go, keep us posted on your project.
Beyond any hope for intervention

Howdy and Welcome from a newcomer.

I second that on the original drum brakes. Quite adequate stock and more than adequate if you add a booster.

As far as whats missing do you know what's missing?

If you don't know feel free to drop some pictures of the brakes with the drums removed and such and share what you do have. Someone will point you in the direction of what you need.

If you don't already have a factory service manual and parts manual you can get one from the manual section and that will give you a good road map for the future.
