Defender 110/130 rear brake calipers supplied as a left and right pair and modified with stainless steel pistons. These fit later Defender 110 and 130 rear brake setups using the wide rear pads, and can also be used when upgrading earlier 110/130 vehicles to the later rear caliper design.
- Fits Defender 110 and 130 from 2001 onwards using SFP000250 rear brake pads
- Also suitable for earlier 110/130 vehicles upgraded to the later rear caliper and pad setup
- Supplied as a matched left and right rear caliper pair
- Modified with stainless steel pistons for improved corrosion resistance
- Replaces SMC500270 and SMC500260 rear calipers
This rear caliper pair fits Land Rover Defender 110 and 130 models from 2001 onwards using the later wide rear brake pads, SFP000250. You are buying the left and right rear calipers together, replacing SMC500270 and SMC500260.
These calipers can also be used on earlier Defender 110 and 130 vehicles when upgrading to the later rear brake caliper and pad design. If your vehicle has been modified or previously converted, check the existing rear calipers and pads before ordering.
These are standard replacement calipers modified to include stainless steel pistons. This gives a useful improvement over ordinary steel pistons, especially on working vehicles, tow vehicles and Land Rovers exposed to road salt, mud, water or long periods of standing.
Rear brake calipers are worth replacing when the pistons are corroded, the caliper is sticking, the pads are wearing unevenly, or the caliper is leaking. When fitting these calipers, check the rear brake discs, hoses, SFP000250 rear brake pads and brake fluid. Related rear brake service parts can be found in Defender rear brake parts.
After installation, bleed the braking system fully and check for correct pedal feel before road testing.

Standard UK shipments are normally sent with DPD. UK orders containing oils or fluids are normally sent with DHL where required, because some carriers restrict liquid shipments.
Worldwide delivery is available through DPD and DHL Express, depending on the destination, parcel size, weight and available courier services. Add the parts you need to your basket, enter your delivery address, and the checkout will show the available delivery options and prices before payment.
Free mainland UK postage and packaging is available on eligible orders over £99, subject to our delivery terms and conditions.

- Need longer? Eligible products can be returned under our voluntary extended returns policy. Contact us within 60 days of delivery and, once the return has been agreed, send the goods back within 14 days.
- Extended returns must be unused, unfitted, complete and suitable for resale as new. Goods must be undamaged, unmarked and uncontaminated, with all components and accessories supplied and their original product packaging where this formed part of the supplied product.
- A £10 handling charge applies to extended returns. This is charged once per return consignment, regardless of how many eligible products are returned together. It does not apply where your statutory cancellation rights apply.
- Return carriage and safe packing are your responsibility for change-of-mind returns.

Returns – quick FAQs
How long do I have to return an item?
For UK and EEA consumers, statutory change-of-mind cancellation rights also apply: tell us within 14 days of receiving your order, then return the goods within the following 14 days.
Which products qualify for 60-day returns?
Products purchased for £250 or more are not automatically covered, although we may agree to accept them for return at our discretion. Eligibility is based on the price of each individual product rather than the total order value.
Is there a charge for an extended return?
This charge does not apply where the return is being made under your statutory cancellation rights.
Who pays return carriage?
If an item is faulty, damaged or incorrectly described, contact us first. Where return is reasonably required, we will normally provide a prepaid return service or cover reasonable return costs agreed with us.
What condition must an extended return be in?
Can I fit a part and then return it?
Once a part has been fitted or an attempt has been made to fit it, it may be marked, contaminated, damaged or otherwise unsuitable for resale as a new part. Fitted or used goods will not normally qualify for our voluntary extended returns policy.
Where statutory cancellation rights apply, handling beyond what is reasonably necessary to inspect the goods may result in a reduction to your refund if it has reduced their value.
What if the item is faulty?
Are any items excluded from 60-day returns?
Extended returns must also meet the condition requirements above. Statutory exclusions and any separate statutory rights continue to apply as set out in our full Terms & Conditions.
How do I start a return?
Please include your order number and a brief reason for the return. Do not send anything back until you have received the appropriate return instructions.
Buy with confidence: all new parts sold by Twinwoods 4x4 include at least 12 months manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
Some products and brands may include a longer warranty period where this is provided by the manufacturer. Where applicable, this will normally be stated on the individual product page or covered by the manufacturer’s own warranty terms.
Warranty cover applies to manufacturing defects. It does not cover misuse, incorrect fitting, competition use unless stated, contamination, modification, damage during installation, normal wear and tear, or failure caused by an unrelated vehicle fault. For certain components, proof of professional fitment may be required.
Warranty claims may require the part to be returned for inspection and/or supplier testing before the claim is accepted. Any advance replacement is discretionary.
Warranty remedies relate to the part itself, meaning repair or replacement, or refund if those are not possible. Warranty does not cover labour, removal or refitting, diagnostics, consumables, travel or other incidental costs.
This warranty is in addition to your legal rights and does not reduce those rights.
