STC9188L STC9188 Rear Brake Pads Discovery I Defender 90

STC9188L is a rear brake pad set for the Land Rover Discovery I and the Defender 90. It is the axle set, meaning both rear wheels, and it is the pads alone with no pins or clips in the box.

This is the rear pad for Rovers running solid rear discs. If your Discovery I or Defender 90 has solid rear rotors and a four wheel disc brake setup, this is the correct pad. Fitting kits are a separate item, so if your pins and retaining clips are worn or rusted you want STC8574 alongside this set.

Brake pads are the part of the system you are meant to replace, which is exactly why it pays to know you have the right ones before the caliper comes apart. These are rear pads only. Front pads are a different number and a different shape, so order both if you are doing the whole vehicle in one weekend.

You will see this pad under more than one number. Land Rover carried it as STC8569, then STC9147, then STC9188, and STC9188L is the number this set is stocked under. They cover the same rear pad application, so a part stamped with an older number is not an older design, it is the same pad under the number in use when it was boxed.

On the Discovery I the factory catalogue runs this pad from chassis FA393361 to WA799999, which covers the 1989 through 1999 vehicles. North American buyers will know the Discovery I as a 1994 to 1999 car, and that sits inside the same range. On the Defender 90 it covers 1994 to 1997.

A brake job is a good moment to look at everything else back there. Rotors, hoses, the fitting kit and the caliper itself all live in the same few inches, and all of them are easier to deal with while the wheel is already off.

FAQ

Does this set include the pins and clips?

No. STC9188L is the pads only, both rear wheels. The rear fitting kit with pins and retaining clips is STC8574 and is sold separately.

Is this the front or the rear?

Rear. It is the axle set for both rear wheels. Front pads are a different part number for both the Discovery I and the Defender 90.

Why do I see this pad listed under other part numbers?

Because Land Rover renumbered it over the years. STC8569, STC9147 and STC9188 all describe this same rear pad application, and STC9188L is the number this set is stocked under.
