Featuring heavy duty cast brackets that bolt directly to your stock drum brake spindles – then calipers to the brackets. These rotors come with M14-1.5 threaded holes with a VW 4x130mm pattern.

Application Note: This is considered a universal part and can fit many different applications based on modifications to the vehicle. Application information is just for reference and not applicable to a stock vehicle configuration. Please verify your application before purchase to ensure this part is correct for your project. Requires 15″ wheels or larger. This kit will not work with 14″ wheels. THIS KIT CANNOT BE USED WITH DROPPED SPINDLES! You will need to reuse the original drum brake backing plate mounting bolts that are M10x18mm with a 15mm Hex Head.
Installation Note: WARNING! It is extremely important that brake lines be installed by a trained mechanic. Proper length of each line in relation to wheel travel and steering angle is critical to avoid brake failure. Equally important is brake lines must be free flowing and have no contamination. Additionally, all calipers must be bled properly, regardless of kit purchased. Do not attempt brake line or caliper installation without the experience to properly evaluate all of these issues. This Kit will require the use of your old wheel bearings or new ones will have to be purchased at time of checkout.
